Donald Trump’s campaign sometimes has limited ability to know whether their ground game operation is reaching target voters in battleground states, as the software being used needs fast internet service to properly track canvassers, according to multiple people familiar with the situation. The Trump campaign this cycle is targeting so-called low propensity Trump voters, who are often in rural areas, as part of their bet that hitting those people who don’t typically vote but would cast a ballot for Trump if they did, could make a difference in a close election. But the Trump campaign and the Elon Musk-backed America Pac, which is now doing an outsized portion of the Trump ground game, use a management app called Campaign Sidekick that struggles in areas with slow internet and means canvassers then have to use an offline version. Trump ground game undercut by slow internet that crashes app Looks like canvassers are also cheating by not actually doing the work. They're just taking Musk's money. If you have to audit canvassers then you have a serious problem
I posted it on another thread, but in the end in several states they just lied (allegedly) and said they had made contact with people that they hadn’t. Impacted around 25 percent of their targets in some western states. Someone loses the question whether this whole thing is some sort of troll on Trump by Musk. It’s potentially that bad.
