For the first time since being announced the winner of the 2020 presidential race against President Donald Trump, President-elect Joe Biden was in Rehoboth Beach this past weekend. Biden purchased a house in North Shores, a community between Rehoboth Beach and Gordons Pond, during the summer of 2017.

Over the years, Biden and his family have been seen in downtown stores numerous times. This time around, he stayed close to home; his only public outing was a bike ride through Cape Henlopen State Park. Joining the president-elect on his long weekend in Rehoboth was a throng of national and international media outlets.
