“At the start of their general-election showdown, former President Donald Trump holds a polling advantage over President Biden in a series of battleground states. But on the ground, Trump is playing catch-up,” the Wall Street Journal reports.
“Seeking to create momentum after Biden’s lively State of the Union address, the president’s campaign said Friday it was launching a $30 million, six-week advertising campaign and would increase hiring of staff in battleground states. The campaign said it had 100 staff on the ground and would add at least 350 new staff members and open 100 offices in March. And national Democrats have so far pumped millions more dollars into building infrastructure in key states than Republicans have.”
“Both Biden and Trump are set to appear Saturday in Georgia, the closest state in their 2020 contest, and Biden is also scheduled to travel to New Hampshire, Wisconsin and Michigan in the week ahead. Trump is expected in the coming week to visit Arizona, a state Biden narrowly won.”
