President Biden’s team has a hard job ahead: they need to win over moderate Republicans who might feel lost in the upcoming election with Trump running again.
Biden could have a good chance to get some of these voters on his side. That would help him win again and bring more people into his team.
There are a lot of these voters: Nikki Haley, a Republican from South Carolina, got 16% of Republican votes in Pennsylvania’s primary last week. Even though she stopped running for president two months ago.
Senator Tim Kaine said it would take some work but it’s possible to win over these voters. Many of them in his state say they won’t vote for Trump.
Former Governor Chris Christie, a Republican, said Biden hasn’t asked him for his support directly. Christie won’t vote for Trump and thinks Biden should ask him for his vote.
The Biden team hasn’t said why they haven’t reached out to Christie yet. But it shows that Biden has a tough task ahead.
Experts say Biden needs to appeal to these moderate Republicans to win. Trump doesn’t seem to be reaching out to them.
The Biden team has been trying to get Haley voters on their side since she dropped out of the race. They’ve released ads showing how Trump treated her badly and saying he doesn’t want her supporters.
Some experts think Biden has a chance with these voters because they might not like how Trump is handling things. But it’s going to be a tough fight.
