'Those numbers are crazy': MSNBC hosts stunned by Harris efforts in battleground states

At the start of Saturday morning's edition of "The Weekend" on MSNBC, co-host Symone Sanders-Townsend broke the news about voter outreach efforts by Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign in the key battleground states needed to beat Donald Trump.

The numbers she quoted stunned co-host Michael Steele.

As Sanders-Townsend reported, "We begin with breaking news, from the Harris campaign moments ago. the campaign released a first look at its battleground state operation as it has kicked into high gear, since the vice president joint race."

"In the last 12 days alone, volunteers have placed 2.3 million phone calls, knocked on 172,000 doors and sent nearly 2.9 million text messages to voters in the seven battleground. This grassroots support comes as vice president Harris secured enough delegates to win her party's nomination," she added.

After introducing Dan Kanninen from the Harris campaign, co-host and former RNC chair Steele exclaimed, "Hey, those numbers are crazy."

"You guys," he continued. "Just the sheer level of organization is incredibly strong. You are looking at, for example, in blue wall states alone over a 100,000 voters have signed up to attend events. In sunbelt states like Georgia, North Carolina, you got thousands — tens of thousands of supporters signing up in the last 12 days. 63,000 sign-ups in Georgia, nearly 40,000 in North Carolina."
