Maryland Gov. Larry Hogan (R) took to Twitter on Saturday to congratulate the former vice president, “Congratulations to President-elect Biden. Everyone should want our president to succeed because we need our country to succeed.”

“We have great challenges ahead of us as a country. Now more than ever, we need to come together as Americans,” he added.

Massuchett’s Gov. Charlie Baker (R) also joined in the congratulations. He tweeted, “I congratulate President-elect Biden and Vice President-elect Harris on their victory.”

“This has been a long and divisive campaign, but now it is critical for us all to focus on the very real and immediate challenges facing this nation,” he added.

Baker also noted the several election-related lawsuits filed by the Trump campaign and said that if the courts do “get involved,” they should “move quickly to make fact-based, lawful decisions.”
