New Gingrich’s struggling presidential campaign has suffered another setback as members of his fundraising team called it quits on Tuesday, according to the AP.
The AP reported that campaign spokesman R.C. Hammond confirmed fundraising director Jody Thomas and fundraising consultant Mary Heitman stepped down from the campaign.
Via the AP:
People familiar with Gingrich’s campaign spending say his fundraising has been weak since he launched his bid and that he has racked up large travel bills. They spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to talk openly about campaign inner workings.
Those defections are the latest blow to Gingrich’s campaign, which already suffered a mass defection just weeks earlier when 16 top aides simultaneously jumped ship.
