US President-elect, Joe Biden, on Tuesday, appointed nine
close campaign aides into key White House positions.
This follows his decision to name Ron Klain as his Chief of
Staff.
The new appointees include his 2020 campaign manager, Jen
O’Malley Dillon, being named Deputy Chief of Staff.
A veteran of seven presidential campaigns, O’Malley Dillon
served as deputy campaign manager for Barack Obama’s successful 2012
re-election effort.
Campaign co-chair Cedric Richmond, a House Democrat from
Louisiana, has been named senior advisor to Biden.
The 47-year-old will leave his seat in Congress to take his
new role when Biden is inaugurated on January 20.
Biden also named Mike Donilon, a chief strategist for his
campaign and a veteran Democratic tactician, to serve as senior advisor to the
president.
Other appointments include the Chief of Staff and senior
advisor to incoming First Lady Jill Biden, a counsel to the president and a
director of Oval Office operations.
The appointments come as President Donald Trump continues to
challenge the results of the November 3 election and refuses to concede the
race to Biden.
