Michael Bloomberg is wasting no time building out his campaign's ground game, with 500 organizers and staff in more than 30 states, including all 14 of the delegate-rich Super Tuesday states, his campaign told NBC News.
The ramp-up — both in staff and in spending on TV ads — has been quick. Just six weeks after he announced his candidacy, the former mayor of New York now boasts more than 800 staffers on his payroll and over $100 million spent on advertising.
The roughly 300 staffers working in the campaign's New York headquarters are set to move into a new building in Times Square to accommodate their burgeoning ranks, aides said.

Someone needs to make a campaign ad about him running as a democrat, then a republican, then as an independent, and now again as a democrat. PDJT would have a blast running against this guy.
The cold open was a Democratic Presidential Candidate debate on PBS, and Bloomberg shows up as one of the candidates. The moderator asks how he got on, since he didn't qualify for the debate.
His answer was "for $30 million PBS is now owned by viewers like me. I even got a tote bag."
Not sure Trump can do that...…….he kinda has the same footprint.
Bloomberg is making a dent in the polls. He’ll spend 2 billion to get what he wants.
I can imagine how many democrats really want to get rid of the billionaire president who creates jobs and replace him with a billionaire president who wants to take our soft drinks from us. That will be an interesting sell with the woke activists.
Trump won the Presidency by underspending every other campaign...
Bloomberg thinks he can buy it by spending more than every other campaign....
Well the upside is that 500 Millenials with Political Science degrees will be off of welfare for a few months.
Just helping the economy along. A few million
here another million over there, etc.
Same here. Every time his commercial airs I think about Big Gulps. Bloomberg wants to micromanage every aspect of our lives!
It will improve President Trump’s employment numbers.
I could use a job. Why not? I’ll take his wasted money.
Yep for a while at least..... All help appreciated
and more money into the economy.
Instead of creating welfare for Democratic staffers, he could have been feeding the hungry, buying homes for the homeless, etc.
Complete sociopath—full stop.
I think Tom Steyers ads are even worse.
The millions of 2018 Poli Sci college graduates need a job.
What is the motivation for this pompous a$$ to spend all that money to become president? More money? I doubt it. More likely a passion to turn this country into a marxist redistributionist hellhole. Why does he want so passionately to destroy this country and to turn it into the failed soviet union?
Bloomberg is coming out with guns blazing.
Er, maybe not the guns. Isn’t he already running on a gun confiscation pledge?
Maybe he will just have his people kick over the restaurant tables where extra-large sugary drinks have been served.
You may get the idea Bloomberg is not a serious candidate. He is serious all right, about as serious as cancer.
The headline writer needs an editor, I think.
That, or Bloomie hired 15,000 people.
