The disparity is playing out in all the battleground states, as Trump's operation relies on get-out-the-vote efforts managed by right-wing super PACs, such as Charlie Kirk's Turning Point Action and Elon Musk's America PAC, that are comparatively new to the rigors of canvassing and door-knocking.
Mark Forton, who chairs the GOP in the fabled swing of Macomb County, Michigan, told the Associated Press, 'I don't know if they are going door to door.' This reflects a broader uncertainty around the efficacy of PAC outreach efforts.
The Harris campaign has dispatched 375 paid staff coordinators to the must-win state of Pennsylvania; the Trump team has somewhere between 50 and 90 there, according to the UK Guardian, illustrating the stark contrast in ground operations.
Nate Wilkowski, the party's field director for nearby Oakland County, expressed concern about the lack of awareness and coordination with America PAC's activities: 'Nobody's given me a head's up that they're around in Oakland County areas.'
