Hillary Clinton and her top surrogates -- including her husband and former President Bill Clinton and first lady Michelle Obama -- plan to fan out to a handful of battleground states in the days following Monday's first presidential debate in a sign of force aimed at getting more Democrats to the polls.

They plan to visit Florida and Pennsylvania repeatedly, with fewer stops in other key states up for grabs and just one visit to Ohio. They have no scheduled trips next week to Colorado, Nevada or Virginia.

Clinton will travel to North Carolina on Tuesday, New Hampshire on Wednesday, Iowa on Thursday and Florida on Friday, her campaign said Saturday. She also has fundraisers planned in battleground states or nearby cities each day next week. Republican nominee Donald Trump's team hasn't yet previewed his plans for next week.

Clinton's post-debate push also coincides with National Voter Registration Day on Tuesday, which her campaign plans to use as an opportunity to work toward its goal of signing up 3 million additional voters.

1. Iowa is kinda a bummer for Hillary isn't it??

3. They may know something we don't know.

Down ticket races...maybe?

2. Why is she wasting her time in Iowa instead

of visiting NV?

4. Both have 6 E College votes. Travel time?

I know it's only an hour (2 round trip) but maybe they just are stretching out to Iowa while everything else is East coast. ???

5. Maybe. Iowa is already out of reach though, so this is only

to keep morale up I guess.

6. Down ticket? I'd think they have internal,polling that shows them something.

I know they have a lot of money to spend but time and energy are not unlimited (and that's not a health comment). I would think that if they wanted to just take a stab somewhere they'd hit Georgia or Arizona but who knows?

7. Iowa may still be in reach.

Internal polls are usually way more accurate.
