ATLANTA (AP) — Hillary Clinton is expanding her presidential battleground map to include the traditionally Republican states of Georgia and Arizona.
Party officials in Arizona and Georgia say Clinton campaign lieutenants told them Monday that the Democratic nominee would start spending money on staff in the two states, which combine for 27 electoral votes, a tenth of the total needed to win the presidency.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Republican National Committee is trying to strengthen its outreach to black voters by hiring a new national director of African-American engagement and bringing on new advisers and strategists to bolster its efforts to bring in more minority voters.
Ashley Bell, who was one of the 18 black delegates at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, started this week as an RNC senior strategist and national director of African-American engagement.
