The president's data-driven campaign workers want to know if you go to church or have a hunting or fishing license. Here's why.
There is data that suggest the effort is paying off—and that worries many Democrats. Since the end of the Democratic primaries, when it became clear Joe Biden was the nominee, Republicans in three key states—Florida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania—have vastly out-registered Democrats. In Florida in 2016, there were 327,483 more registered Democrats, compared to 134,242 today.
Late this summer, the efforts got the attention of some Democrats. In Minnesota the Democrat Farm Labor party began warning the Biden campaign that there were 250,000 non-college-educated white males in the state who didn't vote in 2016. That was a target-rich environment for Trump, and GOP operatives have been working on getting as many registered as possible.
The Trump campaign scoffs at that. ''We're now averaging two million doors a week and growing, and we've been doing it safely for months," says the senior campaign official. Trump canvassers have been trained to wear masks and step back six feet from a door when someone opens it, maintaining"social distancing."
