Biden camp urges supporters to 'campaign like we're trailing'
Democratic nominee Joe Biden's campaign is urging supporters not to become complacent despite polling that shows the former vice president leading President Trump nationally and in key battleground states, adding that supporters should campaign like were trailing.
In a memo obtained by The Hill on Saturday, Biden campaign manager Jen OMalley Dillon said that with almost two weeks left until Election Day, supporters should not automatically assume that Biden is guaranteed to win.
We cannot become complacent because the very searing truth is that Donald Trump can still win this race, and every indication we have shows that this thing is going to come down to the wire, Dillon wrote in the memo.
Dillon cited the 2016 election, in which then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton lost the electoral college despite winning the popular vote and numerous polls predicting a victory for the former secretary of State.
In key battleground states, O'Malley Dillon wrote, the race is far closer than some of the punditry were seeing on Twitter and on TV would suggest.
