Jill Biden was seen voting in a bright red pantsuit, causing some to jokingly wonder if she had gone crazy and voted for Donald Trump.

Joe Biden will not attend Kamala Harris’ election night watch party, while first lady Jill Biden stepped out in a bold red dress as she waits for the electoral map to stay blue.

Both the president and first lady, who have largely been shut out of the campaign since Harris took the top spot, will watch the results from home.

“Tonight, the president and first lady will observe the election results in the White House residence with long-time advisers and senior White House officials,” a White House official said in a statement.

“The president will receive regular updates on the status of racing across the country.”

The president has largely stayed out of the spotlight after a huge gaffe in which he referred to Trump supporters as “trash.”

On Sunday, as the Democratic nominee made her final push for the election, Harris assembled a star-studded group of big political names and sent them to the tightest swing states:

Barack Obama attended a rally in Wisconsin. Bill Clinton was on the trail in North Carolina. Even current First Lady Jill Biden endorsed Harris and greeted voters in Pennsylvania.

But Joe Biden was nowhere to be seen.

He was holed up in his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware (a comfortably blue state), enjoying a long lunch at his golf club with an old friend.

Days earlier, Biden had embarrassed Harris with yet another gaffe, reportedly referring to Donald Trump’s supporters as “trash.” Publicly, the White House insisted that it had not actually said what everyone had heard.

But behind closed doors, the Harris campaign’s message to Joe was clear: Stay away.

Certainly, Biden’s life has changed dramatically in the last three months. After starting the year insisting he was fit enough to run again and beat Trump, Biden finally dropped out of the race on July 21, endorsing Harris as his replacement that same day.

Within hours, Biden, 81, had become what he (and his ambitious wife) had always feared: an outgoing president.

After four years at the center of the political universe, Biden was suddenly out of the spotlight as the world turned its attention to a younger, more enthusiastic candidate.

This rapid descent to the political periphery appears to have been actively encouraged – perhaps brutally – by the Harris team.

Last month, according to a report from Axios, Harris’ campaign has been rejecting the president’s repeated offers to help her along the way.

Team Harris’ response every time: We’ll get back to you.

Privately, Jill Biden has called the situation “tough” for her husband.

In early October, Jill left her husband to campaign in five key states for Harris. Leaving the White House, the president stood alone outside the Oval Office, waving goodbye as her motorcade drove away.

For her part, the First Lady stays busy. He still teaches English two days a week at Northern Virginia Community College. But when she goes out to campaign for Harris, it’s notable that she barely mentions her husband.

Harris has been at pains to emphasize that her presidency would not be “a continuation of Joe Biden’s.”

Biden’s record on the immigration crisis, inflation and foreign wars is something Harris has clumsily tried to distance herself from, despite also insisting that she has been an active vice president.

The wait is almost over for Donald Trump and Kamala Harris as millions of Americans flood polls across the country to vote in what could be the closest election in history. Meanwhile, an NBC poll found that 51 percent of voters trust Trump on the economy, up from 47 percent. penny to Harris. 72 percent of voters said they were “angry” or “dissatisfied” with the state of the nation, a bad sign for the vice president.

It’s the first indication of what voters were thinking when they cast their ballots across the country.

Previously, technical issues hit Indiana and the crucial swing state of Pennsylvania, where voting hours in Cambria County were extended after voters were ordered to place their ballots inside ballot boxes following a software malfunction. .

In Georgia, the secretary of state said non-credible threats from Russia briefly disrupted voting at two voting centers. And the FBI confirmed that threats made by “Russian domains” occurred in several other states.

Meanwhile, Trump’s team does not believe the country will know the election results tonight, CNN reported.

All eyes will be on the seven swing states that will be critical to victory: Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Arizona, Michigan and Nevada.
