When casting his ballot early in Delaware, President Biden was asked whether it was "bittersweet" to vote for Kamala Harris instead of himself, and his response had everyone cheering.

Democratic President Joe Biden cast his early ballot on Monday at his local Department of Elections Warehouse near his home town of Wilmington, Delaware.

"Let's do this," Biden said before adding his vote to the polling station where more than 3,228 ballots were recorded.


Recent polls have shown that Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris and her Republican rival Donald Trump are neck-and-neck in the race ABC News deems "too close to call" in the deciding states of Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Nevada.

When Biden emerged from the ballot booth, he was asked whether or not the moment of voting, which came months after he stepped down from the race and endorsed VP Kamala Harris, was "bittersweet" for him.

He replied:

"This is just sweet."

Voters remained optimistic.




They also thought his response confirmed he was a man of good character and a class act.







Long lines formed at polling stations in Delaware since early voting started on Friday with a turnout of nearly 57,000 voters casting their ballots within the first three days.

So far, according to the University of Florida Election Lab, more than 50 million early votes have been cast nationally ahead of Election Day on November 5.

A CBS/YouGov survey poll found that Harris leads Trump nationally by one percentage point and is tied across the battleground states.

Harris leads with four percentage points, 51%-47%, according to an ABC/Ipsos poll of likely voters.

Meanwhile, a CNBC survey of registered voters showed Trump in the lead 48% to 46%, and a Wall Street Journal registered voter poll showed he is ahead 47% to 45%.

Trump Sparks Concern After Repeatedly Confusing Alaska With Russia Ahead Of Putin Meeting

President Donald Trump turned heads on Monday after he repeatedly claimed he's going to "Russia" on Friday—very openly confusing the country with the state of Alaska, the actual location where he plans to meet Russian President Vladimir Putin for a highly anticipated summit.

Trump made the mix-up during a press conference about crime in Washington, D.C., where he has already moved to federalize the police and deploy the National Guard, citing inflated crime statistics that compared D.C. to Baghdad and Brasilia.

JB Pritzker Explains Exactly Why Trump Is Pushing His GOP Allies To Redistrict—And He's Spot On

Speaking on NBC's Meet the Press, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker perfectly explained why President Donald Trump is pushing for gerrymandered redistricting in Republican-led states amid pushback from Democrats in Texas.

Redistricting has been all over the news cycle in the days since Texas Democrats fled the state to avoid voting on a new heavily-gerrymandered redistricting map and to deny their GOP colleagues a quorum, the minimum number of lawmakers required to conduct legislative business.

MSNBC Fact-Checks Trump In Real Time As He Blatantly Lies About Crime Rates In DC

President Donald Trump is facing criticism after he was fact-checked by MSNBC in real time as he lied about crime statistics while announcing his decision to federalize police in Washington, D.C., and deploy the National Guard in an effort to fight crime.

Trump's announcement is a significant escalation of his previous attacks on the nation's capital, which he has repeatedly referred to as "crime-infested." He claimed in his remarks to the press that D.C. is “one of the most dangerous cities anywhere in the world,” a claim at odds with Justice Department data showing that the city’s crime rate hit a 30-year low last year.
