The Republican National Committee (RNC) will double its staff in battleground states in the coming weeks in an effort to deliver the White House to Donald Trump and protect a slim majority in the Senate.
According to a memo from RNC political director Chris Carr, viewed first by The Hill, the organization will send additional 250 staffers to the 11 states likely to play the biggest role in determining the outcome of the 2016 presidential election.
The new hires will more than double the RNC’s presence in Colorado, Florida, Iowa, Michigan, North Carolina, New Hampshire, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Virginia and Wisconsin.
President Obama won all of those states except for North Carolina in 2012.
In addition to the race for the White House, eight of those state also have competitive Senate races.
The RNC is increasing its battleground state presence from 216 paid staffers to 466. It also says it has nearly 3,600 trained organizers in those states as it gears up to face likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton in the fall.
In the memo, Carr said the expansion was the culmination of a 1,000-day initiative launched by Chairman Reince Priebus with the aim of surpassing the Democrats’ long-standing advantage in electoral data and ground support.

So California is orphaned again.
The best return on their dollar would be money spent on ballot security and anti fraud measures in those key states.
You could almost think the RNC might attempt to win this election...
Smart. Trump himself should begin pouring armies into OH, FL, VA, NV, MI, and PA.
**The best return on their dollar would be money spent on ballot security and anti fraud measures in those key states.**
Bump your thought again and again.
“You could almost think the RNC might attempt to win this election..”
What a refreshing change that would be.
L
our only chance is to win the last 11/12 states that have over 65/75% whites. Pretty much the whole rust belt. then Trump wins!
Those are the states, along with Iowa. Looking at the polls I think PA is now possible & MI too....if I was Trump I would live in PA & MI until November.
I think the RNC is banned from doing that.
Thats a start but I have a feeling there are going to be some more battleground states this election.
Poll today has the evil witch winning rust belt voters..very depressing so many will vote for a corrupt criminal
The only way Trump can win Penn is for every red district to vote in the masses, then lets see Philly try to make up 5 million fake people at the last minute.
I think Trump gets Ohio & Florida....then he just needs PA or MI. If no rust belt comes along he needs Iowa & Nevada....difficult, but possible.
The latest poll shows Clinton's lead has shrunk to only 10 points; that is, if she is the nominee ...
yes Philly always comes in last..so corrupt
There is going to be massive voter fraud upcoming. It may not work anyway.
“Poll today has the evil witch winning rust belt voters”
Give it time. Look how much Trump has improved in the polls over the last few weeks alone. Beyond that, remember how his numbers gradually kept improving and improving with Republican primary voters over the course of months. He needs some space to work his persuasive magic. He’s already doing better than I thought he would be at this point.
and protect a slim majority in the Senate. <<<
LMAO..Did i hear that correctly???
Bet money those operatives will sabotage Trump from within. Would put money down that based on the facts I have heard about in western states, it has already happened.
