Joe Biden’s campaign is hiring a new states director and deputy as it emerges from a Twilight Zone period brought on by the coronavirus
. It made those announcements just as Democratic operatives began expressing concern that Biden wasn’t on the campaign trail and wasn’t hiring up quickly enough —concerns dismissed by Biden’s campaign.
The campaign also feels it has time, considering that Biden clinched the nomination earlier than Barack Obama did in 2008 or Hillary Clinton did in 2016. And he’s marginally leading President Donald Trump in most recent polls of five of the six battleground states: Florida, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and Arizona. Trump holds the slimmest of advantages in North Carolina.
The hiring spree is a leading indicator that the campaign is shifting gears under its new campaign manager, Jen O’Malley Dillon, who assumed her new post just as the campaign shuttered its headquarters and its staff dispersed to work remotely amid the coronavirus scare. That situation saddled her with the triple task of running a campaign that no longer has a headquarters, reinventing that campaign to be totally virtual and sustaining fire from nervous Democrats.
