Biden campaign moves into next phase with new HQ opening in Delaware
Biden's campaign aides have been working out of Washington DC
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}President Biden's 2024 election campaign staff will move out of D.C. and into their own dedicated offices at their new headquarters in Delaware this week.
The first wave of aides is up and running at the Wilmington, Delaware, headquarters, and the next wave is expected to make the transfer by the end of September, Axios reported.
"Having a campaign headquarters outside of D.C. is critical to building a strong, connected team, and I know that soon enough, we will all have our favorite dinner spots, running paths, and coffee shops. We look forward to welcoming supporters, volunteers, and even reporters to come soon enough," campaign manager Julie Chávez Rodríguez told the outlet.

For now, however, most of the attention remains on the Republican presidential primary race, where former President Donald Trump maintains a commanding lead.

An overwhelming majority of Americans stated that Biden is too old to competently carry out the office of the president for a second term, according to a Monday poll from The Associated Press.
