Obama campaign manager on Oregon and other battleground states

Sen. Barack Obama’s national campaign manager, David Plouffe, spoke about the campaign’s plans in Oregon and other battleground states on a conference call with reporters.

Plouffe noted that Oregon’s primary is a “very important moment in the campaign,” and that over the weekend volunteers will knock on “every door we can get to and call every person we can.”

“We see the finish line in sight,” he said.

Although polls have shown Obama with a handy lead in Oregon, Plouffe said that the campaign “doesn’t really pay too much attention to polls. We are just trying to get every vote and every delegate we can.”

He repeatedly touched on the importance of getting voters to submit their ballots, and praised the grassroots organization the campaign has built in the state. Plouffe was also optimistic about Obama’s chances in eastern Oregon, which might be considered a Clinton stronghold.

“We have a really deep organization here, we get sense from canvassing and phone calling in a richer way than a poll provides. Even in some places you might think are Clinton demographic strongholds, we will get a healthy share of votes.”

Plouffe also spoke of plans to campaign in the battleground states—including Oregon—as soon as the nomination is clinched.

“We will wake up the day after the nomination and have a plan in place. I don’t think McCains has taken great advantage of his time. The moment we become the nominee we want to take field in very strong way.”
