Biden Has 0 Stand-Alone Campaign Offices In Swing States

While Biden’s team conducts no in-person campaigning and has yet to open a stand-alone office in any swing state, Trump’s operation has regularly flouted recommendations from local and state officials to hold in-person events and opened more than 280 offices.
Elliott Echols, the RNC’s national field director, says the party has held 31,000 in-person campaign events since June 11 and knocked on over 1 million doors every week in August. It has doubled door-knocks since 2016, he said, and prizes such personal encounters over digital contact.

The full article does it's best to disparage Trump but I found the fact that Biden has zero stand-alone offices pretty significant. Although I quickly remind myself that the media carries their water I would think they would have an office and do more campaigning especially in swing states

That’s hard to believe they don’t have offices in cities like Milwaukee Miami and Charlotte? Is that really true?

Saving money for all those stamps.

Amazon doesn’t have any offices there either. They seem to be doing ok.

Smartest thing they've done so far.....stop wasting all that money.

According to that article it is. Now whether or not they are telling truth is something I can not say for sure.

Well, running for President is getting people to send you money and getting them to click in the right place on a machine. I’d say Amazon is pretty damned good at that.

Million doors a week says there is a pretty good chance that has happened

True. But they aren’t “stand alone.”

You know they're operating out of state and local party offices, and union hq's. But it's some sort of stupid Corona-brag for them to claim they don't have stand alone offices like evil Trump.
Their goal all year has been to clamp down on in-person traditional campaigning, so Dementia Joe can stay home and let the media do its work.

This might be the first thing I’ve read that you posted on this site that makes some sense, and it’s even more instructive if you make the next obvious observation - that the success of both Amazon and Biden finds roots in China.

Does this mean Biden-only campaign offices or not offices for the democratic party? I know when I worked on a campaign in college years ago in Memphis the Republican party did all its campaigning through one central office. Regardless, not in-person campaigning for his entire team is going to kill him. That type of stuff is still important even in 2020. Running a campaign solely through the media is quite the risk.

I guess you thought that would be deemed “witty”?

I assume they are referring to Biden only campaign offices which I think they would most certainly be needed in swing states.

Yeah the target voters in swing states want to be made to feel like they're as important as they're constantly made out to be. And who can blame them. By all accounts this type of thing lacking from the Clinton campaign is what hurt her as badly as anything else in 2016. These voters expect the whole shebang.
