How Clinton lost Michigan and blew the election

157. Look....Let's Break This Down...At Least In Michigan

In The area WE live in -- Campaign Office Managers were overworked and underpaid. They were paid upwards to $3000 a month to work 6 days at week, upwards to 12 hours a day. That's ridiculous, period, with an expectation that work will get done and properly (cross-checks for data entry, planning local phone-bank events, sending emails, coordinating with local candidates, running an office and more).

Next, at the beginning of offices opening in the local area, the Hillary Campaign was CHARGING (yes, charging) $10.00 a sign for a Hillary sign? REALLY?

What local folks were going to pay for a yard sign, when yard signs SHOULD BE FREE to supporters? This caused Hillary signage not to be on the ground in any type of mass until early October and even after October when they stopped "charging" for signs -- only at half mass then. Key point, by then Trump supporters, had signs littered in rural areas for sure -- and in SOME urban areas.

Also, volunteers were few and far to come by until the second week of October. Why? Well, it was told over and over again, Michigan was 5-7 points in favor of Clinton.

In other words, no sense of panic to force folks leaning 3rd Party, No Party or just not sure -- snap to the reality Trump could be elected. Add to that, Clinton FAILED to VISIT S.E. Michigan part of the State (Democratic base) during the last three weeks of Election 2016 Campaign.

Lit drops were a waste of time and money by this point. The ONLY THING that might have turned this sinking ship around was Robo-Calls, Human Calls to Voters, a new message just for Michigan voters directly by Clinton, littering the state with her presence, and new commercials targeting why she was against NAFTA and would bring back Michigan jobs.

Let's be frank -- Robby Mook and Jennifer Palmeri were complete failures to Hillary's Campaign. They both should have had an immediate response Counterattack to "Wiki-Leaks/FBI" BS. They knew or should have known what emails and communications were hacked. Clinton should have held nearly daily Pressers plus rallies, along targeted Press Releases for certain states, and a strong Counter-Response strategy to handle this. The Campaign HAD the money to make this happen.

That's the story in Michigan. As for other places, we would be interested what other think about Clinton Campaign on-the-ground operations in Pennsylvania & Wisconsin.
