Obama to watch election returns with extended family
CHICAGO -- The Obamas’ election night will be a family affair.
First daughters Sasha and Malia are in Chicago to share the big night with their dad. The two flew from Washington after school on Tuesday, along with their grandmother, Marian Robinson, White House aides said.
The first family was slated to eat dinner together at their home in the Kenwood neighborhood, before heading to the Fairmont Hotel to watch returns.
First Lady Michelle Obama’s brother Craig Robinson and his family are due to join in, as are the president’s sister Maya Soetoro-Ng and her husband.
