Ground Games Ramp Up in Georgia

November 23, 2022 · 2:05 pm ET · Leave a Comment

Wall Street Journal: “The Georgia GOP and Republican National Committee said in a memo that they have 400 paid staffers on the ground, in addition to 30 people from Mr. Walker’s team and aides from the Senate Republicans’ campaign arm.”

“The Warnock campaign has added over 900 paid field staffers—an addition of about 300 people to scale up for the runoff—to reach voters who supported him or another candidate in the general election, aides said. The campaign plans to use that field team to knock on more doors than it did during the general election. The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has made a $7 million investment in the campaign’s effort to bring its voters back to the polls.”

Meanwhile, Donald Trump is planning to hold a “virtual rally” for Walker shortly before Election Day — which his team considers “an effective way to motivate his fans without drawing the kind of news coverage that stirs up opposition.”

Here's a News Tool Worth Trying

I spend a lot of time following political news, but even I can't read everything. That's why I appreciate what Ground News does.

It shows how the same story is covered across the political spectrum — and highlights important stories that one side may be ignoring entirely.
