Joe Biden Names Indian-American Medha Raj As Digital Chief Ahead Of US Presidential Elections 2020

Indian-American Medha Raj has been named by Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden as his digital chief of staff. It’s a key role in his election campaigns which are entirely going virtual due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the US. Raj will work across all facets of the digital department to streamline and coordinate how to maximise the impact of its digital outputs, Joe Biden's campaign said. Raj is based out of the Los Angeles area in Southern California. She comes from Pete Buttigieg's campaign, who has now endorsed Joe Biden. The news was first reported by CNN, which the news channel said is part of the efforts of the Biden campaign to adapt to an almost entirely virtual campaign trail brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic. As per CNN, Clarke Humphrey, who previously worked on Hillary Clinton's 2016 campaign, will act as the Biden campaign's new deputy digital director for the grassroots fundraising. Jose Nunez is the campaign's new digital organising director. Joe Biden, 77, is challenging the 74-year-old Republican incumbent President Donald Trump in the November 3 US presidential elections.
