Rick Perry no longer paying South Carolina staff
He raised only $1.1 million in the second quarter, and his campaign will depend nearly entirely on his far better-funded super PAC, according to the National Journal.

After weeks of sub-par fundraising, the presidential campaign of former Texas Gov. Rick Perry has stopped paying its staff in South Carolina. “The Governor can also be wanting ahead to his journeys to South Carolina this Thursday and to Iowa subsequent week”.
Katon Dawson, chair of Perry’s South Carolina campaign, told The Texas Tribune and The Washington Post late Monday that all South Carolina staffers are now working as volunteers.
Perry campaign manager Jeff Miller told the staff Friday, the day after the first Republican presidential debate, that they would no longer be paid and are free to look for other jobs.
The Perry campaign says, “As the campaign moves along, tough decisions have to be made in respect to both monetary and time related resources”.
“Governor Perry stays dedicated to competing within the early states and can proceed to have a robust presence in Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina”, Nashed stated in a press release. However another Perry staffers in South Carolina stated they might proceed to work as volunteers, at the very least in the intervening time, believing Perry’s fortunes might enhance.
Perry has faced flagging polling numbers that kept him off the main stage at last week’s much-watched debate, as well as sluggish fundraising.
The former governor failed to keep his position and dropped out of the race for the presidential nomination, four years ago. Perry with the support of Opportunity and Freedom super PACs, collected almost $17 million in the month of July.
