The Biden campaign's latest push against the Republican Party comes as they continue to court Black and Latino voters. To accomplish that, Biden and his team will be targeting voters digitally, taking over the homepage of media brands Complex and Univision.
This digital effort is an attempt to reach millennials and Generation Z voters as part of the Democrats' online counter-programming plan, which has run throughout the entire RNC convention.
Additionally, the Biden campaign will launch the hashtag TheNewAdministration, pitching to voters the need for a change in the government -- something he would be glad to provide with the help of his running mate, Sen. Meanwhile, the Biden campaign has spent seven-figures in some of the key states including Florida, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Wisconsin, Arizona and Michigan. Overall, pro-Biden efforts, including the campaign and outside groups, have spent nearly twice the amount spent by pro-Trump efforts on television ads from late July through the end of August, with a particularly reserved efforts from the Trump campaign countered by an aggressive ad blitz from the Biden campaign.
The Trump campaign had long promised to use its massive cash-on-had advantage to define whoever the Democratic nominee ended up being. Back in July, amid staffing shake up , the Trump campaign briefly pulled its advertising in order to reset on strategy.
One issue ignored by the Democrats that will likely dominate during the Republican convention is the violence and rioting that has accompanied protests against racism and police brutality in some major cities in the wake of the police killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis in May.
The Republicans will position Trump — with his "law and order" message — as the only leader able to stand against the violence and chaos that they say are engulfing those cities, Republican strategist Evan Siegfried said. What viewers won't see, however, is a diverse range of speakers on the political spectrum. The Democratic convention included progressives like Vermont Sen.
But notably absent from the Republican lineup will be former president George W. Bush, senior members of his administration and former presidential candidate Mitt Romney, who has been one of the few Republican lawmakers critical of Trump.
Molly O'Rourke, executive in residence at American University's School of Communication, said what was successful about the Democratic convention was that while it made the case against Trump, it was relevant to the real-world experiences of people during the pandemic.
And if the Republican convention is too negative toward Biden and the Democrats, it "runs the risk of not connecting with voters' lives," she said. Despite the stated theme of the event and the range of everyday American speakers, Bannon, the Democratic strategist, said he still believes the convention isn't seeking a wider appeal to voters. He covers Canadian and U. Pseudonyms will no longer be permitted. But neither former Republican President George W.
Bush nor nominee Mitt Romney, who now is a Utah senator and a Trump critic, is on the Republican convention schedule. More than two dozen former Republican lawmakers announced their support for Biden as the Republican convention started. Search Search. Home United States U. Latest show. VOA Africa Listen live.
