Billionaire Michael Bloomberg has already pumped tens of millions of dollars into the 2020 race for Democrat Joe Biden, primarily in Florida. But now Bloomberg is about to spend more in two other states that he thinks Democrats could flip, Ohio and Texas. The New York Times writes:

Howard Wolfson, one of Mr. Bloomberg’s closest aides, said the former mayor had recently asked his team to run a round of polls to see whether Mr. Trump had unexpected vulnerabilities that could be exploited in the campaign’s closing weeks. Up to this point, Mr. Bloomberg’s general-election activities have focused on Florida, where he has pledged to spend $100 million supporting Mr. Biden.

The Bloomberg team conducted polling in a number of states over the weekend and came away convinced that Texas and Ohio represented its best targets — narrowly divided electoral prizes where the war for television airtime is not already cluttered with heavy advertising on either side. The team presented Mr. Bloomberg with the numbers on Monday morning and he gave the go-ahead.

As the Times notes, a Democratic win in Ohio or Texas would not only mean Trump was defeated, it would be by “a thumping margin.” Bloomberg also plans to pour money into Florida in the campaign’s final days.
