I understand "a first" here as "the first time (of acknowledging Biden's win)"? Am I on the right track? The phrase somehow sounds a bit elusive to me.
==========================
Pence officially declared Biden the winner at 3:41 a.m. EST. Not long after, Trump released a statement through a White House social media account, acknowledging Biden's win, a first. Even though I totally disagree with the outcome of the election, and the facts bear me out, nevertheless there will be an orderly transition on January 20th,” Trump's statement said.
