Officials with the Joe Biden presidential campaign are so confident that United States President Donald Trump’s chances of winning re-election have slipped because of his response to the coronavirus pandemic and the ensuing economic carnage that they are beefing up staffing in several states once considered unlikely to support the presumptive Democratic nominee.
In a strategy briefing for reporters on Friday, Biden campaign manager Jen O’Malley Dillon said states like Arizona, Texas and Georgia may now be in play for the November 3 general election.
“We believe that there will be battleground states that have never been battleground states before,” O’Malley Dillon said.
