WASHINGTON _ Amid a still-surging coronavirus pandemic and faltering economy, President Donald Trump is rapidly losing ground in the 2020 campaign as a significant slice of his former supporters have switched their allegiance to Joe Biden.
That presents a new challenge for the presumptive Democratic nominee: keeping those swing voters from souring on him and defecting back to Trump.
With less than four months before the election, leading Democratic operatives say the Biden campaign and its well-funded allies must redirect their focus from winning over more moderate voters to ensuring they remain in the fold, a shift they say will require a strategic rethinking within the party.
