Joe Biden has largest campaign team in place in Iowa now

[Peacetrain]

VP Biden did not get into the campaign until April 25th and has since built a robust Iowa campaign and is now probably the largest campaign in Iowa.. the thing I love best about this campaign is that they take nothing for granted





"Joe Biden is ramping up his Iowa ground game as the caucus race enters the final months and as his top Democratic opponents narrow the gap in the polls.

The Biden campaign plans to have about 110 total staff in Iowa by the end of September, over 80 of which will be on the field side, they told Starting Line. That’s an increase from the 75 total staff that were in place here by mid-August. They’ll also have just over 20 field offices open by the end of the month, a jump from the 14 they have operating now.

As one of their top campaign advisers told reporters right after Labor Day, the Iowa Caucus may not be a must-win for Biden, but his campaign is still seriously investing in the state to stave off challenges from his closest competitors. The new staffing additions should make them the largest operation of any candidate here, at least from what’s publicly known.

“Biden for President is quickly building the most robust field program in Iowa — not only because we have the largest team in the state, but because like Vice President Biden, our organizers are doggedly determined to pave a better path forward for our country,” Biden’s Iowa state director Jake Braun said."

That's quite a while ago. What evidence do we have that they're STILL actively volunteering, or that they ever did anything substantive (other than providing their email address and clicking a "contact me" button on some political web page)?
