President Biden is convening longtime aides in the White House residence to watch election returns, but one of his seniormost advisers is not on hand tonight, a White House official says.
National security adviser Jake Sullivan, who served in that same role when Biden was vice president and also served as a policy adviser on his 2020 campaign, is instead in New Hampshire with his wife, Maggie Goodlander, who is running to represent the Granite State’s second congressional district.
