Trump's Rallies Vs. Clinton's Ground Game

A candidate’s ground game is everything they do to turn out their voters on election day—from voter registration, to door knocking, to phone calls, to direct mail. It’s tedious and expensive work. But, done well, it can nudge a candidate a few points ahead of their opponent. That’s the difference between winning and losing in swing states like Florida, North Carolina, Ohio, and Pennsylvania. This week, BuzzFeed’s Tarini Parti and Rosie Gray take a look at how Trump and Clinton are reaching out to voters in those states, and whether or not Trump’s rallies are any match for Clinton’s well-organized and well-funded ground game. Guests: North Carolina Senator Thom Tillis and Marlon Marshall, director of state campaigns for the Hillary Clinton.
