Seasoned Democratic strategist tapped to boost Biden's 2024 polling effort

Joe Biden has tapped a top operative to oversee his number cruncher operation for the upcoming election.

The president is turning to Mindy Myers — an experienced Democratic strategist who just helped one of the president’s former aides win a crowded primary — to helm his 2024 campaign’s polling team.

Myers, who worked as a consultant for moderate Democrat Gabe Amo during his successful run for the party’s nomination in a Rhode Island House district, will serve as Biden’s senior adviser of opinion research.

The hiring, which the Biden campaign shared exclusively with POLITICO, is the latest sign that the reelection effort is ramping up after a relatively slow start. In recent weeks, the Biden team has officially opened its headquarters, launched a historically early $25 million ad campaign, and brought on other new employees.

Myers was previously chief of staff to Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and managed her successful 2012 Senate run. Myers later became the first woman to serve as the executive director of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, where she worked during the 2018 cycle. In 2020, she advised then-Sen. Kamala Harris during the vice presidential selection process.

Joe needs to keep ads like these running until the election to counter the lies bring spewed by the Republican party. There are too many gullible people who don’t pay attention to what is truly happening.

Question: should I let her know that the blogosphere has decided that all polling is untrustworthy and a waste of time?
