DNC Hires Staff In 6 Battleground States

“The Democratic National Committee is placing operatives in six states to focus exclusively on attacking President Trump and driving local conversation about his policies ahead of the 2020 election,” Politico reports.

“It’s the DNC’s first round of staff hires in battleground states, drawing an early outline of the 2020 electoral map: Florida, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, four of the closest states that Trump won in 2016, as well as Arizona — which has slowly been moving to the left in recent years and voted for Trump by a narrow 3.5 percentage points in 2016 — and Ohio, a traditional swing state that some Democrats argue should be considered a second-tier priority in 2020.”
