John McCain is increasing his number of offices in Wisconsin from 10 to 18 and paid staff members from 20 to about 30. The race has come much closer, which is a result of the Republican Party in Wisconsin being energized by McCains VP choice, Sarah Palin. The campaign is hoping to make things even closer by becoming more organized in the state. Along with the added offices, McCain and VP candidate Sarah Palin are coming to the Resch Center in Ashwaubenon on Thursday. This is their second stop to Wisconsin since Palin joined the ticket; it was the first place they visited after the convention in Minneapolis.
Obama is also opening up more offices. He is opening up 4 more offices to make a total of 36 offices across the state. Although McCain is catching up to him, the Obama campaign is not worried. They say that they will just have a much narrower win than they were expecting. Along with opening up new offices, Obama's "Heartland Change Tour II" comes to Waupun today. Campaign staff and supporters will join together to discuss Obama and McCain's records as they relate to rural Wisconsin.
