Biden looks to flip Red States for path to defeat Trump
Arutz Sheva ^ | 17/5/20 | David Rosenberg

Former Vice President and the presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is looking to expand the number of swing states in play in this November’s election, targeting Republican-leaning states in his bid to unseat President Donald Trump.

Alongside traditional battleground states like Ohio, Florida, North Carolina, and New Hampshire – the former three of which Trump won in 2016 – the Biden presidential campaign believes it can bring traditionally reliable GOP states into play, like Texas, Georgia, and Arizona, which hold a combined 65 electoral votes, or nearly a quarter of the 270 needed to win the election.

Jen O’Malley Dillon, a Biden campaign manager, told reporters Friday that the campaign would be focused both on winning back Democratic-leaning states which Trump flipped in 2016 – like Iowa, Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania – as well as traditional battleground states like Florida, North Carolina, and Ohio.

But O’Malley Dillon added that the campaign is also eyeing Republican strongholds like Texas, Georgia, and Arizona to broaden the electoral map in play.

He shouldn’t take the blue states for granted.

Now I dont know who your are referring to, but I am the last person “Scared” to death of Joe Biden.

People keep wishing, hoping, praying that Biden is going to be replaced. He isn't. He is who will be on the ballot for the Democrats come November. Time for people to accept that and drop the insanity that the Democrats are so God-awful stupid that they'll run Hillary again. They aren't.

Now for the democRATS? You bet they are scared to death of him.

Hardly.

I doubt very much he will be the nominee, UNLESS, they can somehow manage to keep him IN his coffin till after the convention.

He will be the nominee and as I have said time and time again, it won't be Biden that Trump is running against. He's running against a trashed economy, unemployment above 15%, a $6 trillion 2020 deficit or more, and Covid. That's what he needs to beat.

“He shouldn’t take the blue states for granted.”

no kidding ... and given the lack of enthusiasm for his candidacy, i suspect he’ll have real trouble raising the big bucks he’ll need, and so far, his campaign itself has been amazingly inept anyway ...

Trump's economy, thanks to Covid-19, is not doing very well

You do this just to hear yourself talk, don’t you? Read what you wrote. “Thanks to COVID 19”...the voters know that...and because of the recovery through the 3rd qtr due to Trump ignoring the pearl clutchers and pushing the opening plan, he’ll cruise to reelection flipping some blue states for good measure...all to your sadness.

The lock downs will be over by November. The economy won't.

‘He just needs to win back Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin.’

that’s a pretty big get; PA and MI seem good for him (assuming he runs, which I am not) WI not so much; actually, the pubs need to worry about NC and maybe AZ as well...

Donald Trump isn’t running against Joe Biden, really; he’s running against a fourth quarter economy in shambles...

‘Biden has zero chance of flipping NC, OH or FL’

if I had to bet the house I would agree; but we are on new ground here; old rules don’t apply...
