Jen O’Malley Dillon, Joe Biden’s campaign chairwoman, has acknowledged that Florida’s 30 electoral votes will go to former President Donald Trump.
In a recent podcast interview with Puck, a far-left media outlet, O’Malley Dillon was questioned about whether the campaign viewed Florida as a key battleground state that Trump would challenge in the future. Her response was a straightforward, “No.”.
Heilemann: And you’re saying you see North Carolina also as a battleground state?
O'Malley-Dillon: Yes.
Heilemann: Florida?
O'Malley-Dillon: No.https://t.co/lfxbxyXSJy— Nick Field (@nick_field90) June 24, 2024
The situation has improved even further… The “ground organizing staff” of Biden in Florida has been informed of the news and is currently feeling completely demoralized.
“Writing Florida off through a paywalled Puck News article while @FloridaForBiden staff are on the ground organizing here is not great,” one Biden crybaby crybabied on Xwitter, adding, “Not a lot of staffers, consultants, or organizers are in a position to say it, but this was such an unnecessary, demoralizing gut punch.”
Subsequently, in an attempt to showcase the incompetence of the Biden campaign, Dan Kanninen, the battleground states director for the Biden campaign, promptly released a statement to the Hill declaring, “Florida is in play!”:
“Florida is in play for President Biden and Democrats up and down the ballot. Trump and his out-of-touch loyalists are taking the state for granted, while their extreme agenda continues to increase costs and rip away Floridians’ freedoms. The President has a strong story to tell on the issues that matter most to Floridians, which is why our campaign continues to scale up our presence and investments into the state.”
The situation at Biden’s campaign headquarters is extremely dire, as O’Malley Dillon has revealed their intention to focus on North Carolina. However, it is worth noting that according to the RealClearPolitics (RCP) average poll of North Carolina polls, Trump currently holds a 5.8-point lead.
