NO STONE UNTURNED

Heading into the final three weeks of the presidential race the Haley Voters For Harris (HV4H) PAC is turning up the heat in a few of the critical states like Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania. Robert Schwartz, the Michigan Director for HV4H, tells Oakland Confidential that his group got a seven-figure donation the first full week of October to up the game by reaching out to 600,000 Michigan voters to capture the backing for Vice President Kamala Harris from disenchanted Republican voters (296,200) who still cast primary election votes for Nikki Haley even though she had formally withdrawn from the race and threw her support to ex-prez Trump. Schwartz said digital ads were launched immediately, focused on center right or moderate members of the GOP. Some national polling suggests that 36 percent of those voting for Haley can be counted on as votes for Harris come November 5. Such an effort could be a determining factor in a state like Michigan which Biden won by about 154,000 votes in 2020.
