On Nov. 7, as news of President-elect Joe Biden's triumph over soon-to-be former President Donald Trump swept the nation, VP-elect Kamala Harris made a phone call.

"We did it, we did it, Joe," Harris gleefully declares in a clip posted to her official Twitter account. "You're going to be the next president of the United States."

The extremely relatable moment of joy — and let's be real, relief — was captured moments after Harris learned she would become the first female, first Black, and first South Asian vice president in American history.
