It's the final sprint of the election, but Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton still has time for family.

On Monday morning, Chelsea Clinton tweeted that her mother set aside some time to check in with her 2-year-old granddaughter, Charlotte, just a day before the election.

Apparently Hillary goes by "Granma" and is all about seeing her first grandchild via FaceTime and showing her "the big plane" she's been taking on the campaign trail.

Chelsea Clinton noted her daughter is a big fan of Byron Barton, the illustrator behind such books as "Planes," "Boats" and "My Car." If everything goes well, Charlotte could one day be flipping through "Air Force One."
