Were you in Jamaica Plain on Saturday after former Vice President Joe Biden won the presidential election? If so, you heard church bells ringing, car and air horns honking, people cheering, pots and pans being banged, dancing in the streets, and a whole lot more celebrating.
Around 11:40 am or so word got out that Biden had been elected…
Can affirm, here on Seaverns!
