DeSantis super PAC pauses some voter canvassing, sets high fundraising goals
Source: CBS News via MSN
A super PAC backing Florida Governor Ron DeSantis' presidential run has suspended its door knocking outreach in the early presidential primary state of Nevada, and three other Super-Tuesday states, including delegate-rich California. The adjustment by the PAC is a reminder of the outsized role it has played so far in DeSantis' campaign, by handling tasks that are usually controlled by the presidential campaign itself.
The PAC, "Never Back Down," says that the pause of these field operations, which involved up to 250 staffers and canvassers, will be implemented in Nevada, California, Texas and North Carolina. The PAC said its political staffers in those states will remain in place, and door knockers who were cut in recent weeks are being redirected to Iowa, New Hampshire or South Carolina. The PAC's cuts were first reported by NBC News.
"We see real opportunities in the first three. The first three are going to set the conditions for the March states," PAC communications director Erin Perrine wrote in a statement.
Perrine said recent efforts to alter the voting rules in Nevada and California benefit former President Donald Trump and decrease the effectiveness of the PAC's investments in grassroots efforts.
