Clinton Campaign Expands Coordinated Efforts for Down-Ballot Democrats

[RandySF]

With three weeks until Election Day, Hillary Clinton’s team is stepping up its coordinated campaign efforts, sending an additional $6 million to seven battleground states with competitive Senate races.

The campaign is also expanding its efforts in states where it admits that the Democratic presidential nominee faces an uphill battle, but where down-ballot Democrats could get a boost from increased turnout.

The Clinton campaign now sees the presidential battlefield expanding to Arizona, where it intends to spend an additional $2 million that will also benefit down-ballot Democrats. First lady Michelle Obama will campaign for Clinton in Phoenix on Thursday, the campaign announced Monday.

Republican nominee Donald Trump and his comments about Arizona Sen. John McCain have made the state more competitive, Clinton campaign manager Robby Mook said on a press call Monday morning. Democratic Rep. Ann Kirkpatrick is taking on McCain in the state's Senate race.

4. Finally. Good. Win the presidency, but this gives it some teeth.

We've been gummed into prosperity slowly and more slowly for too long.

We should have that fifty state strategy for the simple reason that our media leaves those other states uninformed.
