MI,WI 的基層很簡單, 你黎我度, 我就投你
Harris and Trump are focusing on Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, the "blue wall" states that went for Trump in 2016 and flipped to Biden in the next election.
While Trump's campaign is bullish on its chances in Pennsylvania as well as Sunbelt states, Wisconsin is seen as more of a challenge.
"Wisconsin, tough state," said Trump campaign senior adviser Chris LaCivita, who worked on Republican Sen. Ron Johnson's winning reelection campaign in 2022.
"I mean, look, that's going to be a very tight — very, very tight, all the way to the end. But where we are organizationally now, comparative to where we were organizationally four years ago, I mean, it's completely different," LaCivita said.
He also cited Michigan as more of a challenge. "But again, these are states that Biden won and carried and so they're going to be brawls all the way until the end and we're not ceding any of that ground."
The candidates are about even in Wisconsin, based on a series of polls that have shown little movement since Biden dropped out in late July. Those same polls also show high enthusiasm among both parties.
Mark Graul, who ran then-President George W. Bush's 2004 campaign in Wisconsin, said the number of campaign visits speaks to Wisconsin's decisive election role.
The key for both sides, he said, is persuading infrequent voters to turn out.
"Much more important, in my opinion, than rallies," Graul said.
