The 2020 presidential candidate is down to a "skeleton staff," an aide confirmed.
CommentKevin RobillardNovember 1, 2019California Sen. Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign laid off the vast majority of its field staff in New Hampshire this week, sharply limiting her presence in the Granite State.
Even before this week’s layoffs, Democratic operatives in New Hampshire had questioned Harris’ commitment to the state, noting she had spent significantly more time campaigning in Iowa and South Carolina. Most recent public polling in New Hampshire shows Harris earning 5% or less of the vote. “Senator Harris and this team set out with one goal — to win the nomination and defeat Donald Trump in 2020,” said Nate Evans, the campaign’s New Hampshire communications director. “To do so, the campaign has made a strategic decision to realign resources to go all-in on Iowa, resulting in office closures and staff realignments and reductions in New Hampshire. The campaign will continue to have a staff presence in New Hampshire but the focus is and will continue to be on Iowa.
