Report: Donald Trump campaign to ramp up Florida operation

Better late than never?

A report from The Hill suggests a rapid expansion of the Florida operation of the Donald Trump campaign is imminent.

The Republican National Committee and “senior Trump campaign officials” have agreed to 25 field offices and more than 200 staff members in the state, The Hill reports, after a Friday meeting in Orlando.

The report notes the Hillary Clinton campaign has spent $20 million on the airwaves in the Sunshine State, and already has 14 Florida offices.

Both the Clinton and Trump campaigns have held rallies in Florida in the last week.
