Ua hele ka pelekikena, ʻo 81, i nā hanana ʻohi kālā ma New York a me New Jersey i ka Pōʻaono, a pale aku i kāna hana ma CNN’s Presidential Debate.
Ma ke kamaʻilio ʻana i hoʻokahi hanana, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Mr Biden, “ʻAʻohe oʻu pō maikaʻi, akā ʻaʻole hoʻi ʻo Trump” i ka Pōʻalima.
“Ke hoʻohiki nei au iā ʻoe e lanakila ana mākou i kēia koho balota,” wahi āna.
Ua hōʻailona ʻia ka hana hoʻopaʻapaʻa a Mr Biden e nā pane paʻakikī a haʻalulu – e hoʻāla ana i ka makaʻu hou i waena o kekahi poʻe Democrats no ka mea ʻo ia ka moho kūpono e hoʻokūkū i kēia koho balota kiʻekiʻe.

Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Democrats “e hoʻomaopopo ʻaʻole hiki iā Mr Biden ke hoʻomau i kāna lāhui, a hana i kahi kaʻina e koho ai i kahi mea hiki ke kū ma kona wahi”.
