Democratic nominee Joe Biden cast his early vote in the US presidential election on Monday in Delaware. The 81-year-old arrived at the polling station near Wilmington, had his identification checked, and received his ballot. After spending 85 seconds in the voting booth, he emerged with an “I Voted” sticker. Biden waited in line for 40 minutes before casting his vote. Despite rare appearances on the campaign trail, Biden has been confident in his prediction of a victory for his running mate, Kamala Harris.
Biden expressed that voting was a sweet experience and dismissed any bitterness about not being used as a surrogate for the Democratic campaign. Former presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama have made appearances to support Harris as sources close to the campaign describe Biden’s absence as a “slow-moving break-up.”
The close-fought contest for the US presidency is entering its final stretch as Biden continues to encourage voter participation. The former vice president remains optimistic about the election outcome and is focused on supporting his chosen running mate. Despite limited public appearances, Biden’s commitment to casting his vote early showcases his dedication to the democratic process. As the nation anticipates the election results, Biden’s early vote signifies the importance of civic engagement in shaping the future of the United States.
