Article snippet: Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s (D-MA) campaign is angling to become the first in the Democrat presidential field to open offices and hire field staff in Pennsylvania, the AP reported on Thursday. Warren, who has been slipping in the polls in recent weeks, is reportedly preparing to dive into the late primary state, vying to become first in the field of Democrat candidates to do so. Warren’s campaign indicated that it hired a Pennsylvania campaign strategist “to start next week and will bring on organizing staff and open a field office in Philadelphia in the coming weeks,” according to the AP. The aggressive move comes over four months prior to the state’s April 28 primary. The AP reports: The shift in strategy comes as Warren struggles to regain her frontrunner status in both national and early primary and caucus state polls.
