It's been a long time coming, far longer than anyone predicted or hoped, but after days of counting votes the results are in... and Joe Biden has won the United States presidential election. At the time of writing, Biden has won with 273 electoral college votes, with more still to be announced.

Please note: This story is still being updated, there are a lot of tweets coming in.
