The potentially fake door-knocks – when canvassers falsely claim to have visited a home – could present a serious setback for Trump as he and Kamala Harris remain even in the polls with fewer than 20 days until an election.
The Trump campaign earlier this year outsourced the bulk of its ground game to America Pac, the political action committee founded by Elon Musk, betting that spending millions to turn out Trump supporters, especially those who don’t typically vote, would boost returns.
America Pac denied it was experiencing that level of actual fraud in Arizona and Nevada and declined to comment on reporting for this story.
The Trump campaign did not respond to multiple requests for comment.
One canvasser working for Blitz Canvassing appears to have marked doors from a Mexican restaurant in Globe, Arizona.
Under normal circumstances, a canvasser walks up to the door of a home where a Trump voter lives.
If the doors are not hit, the vendor owes money back to the client or owes that many “free” doors. »
