A Joe Biden super PAC is adding paid staffers in 11 Super Tuesday states

A super PAC supporting a presidential run for Vice President Joe Biden is beefing up operations by hiring paid staffers in 11 states that hold primaries on Super Tuesday, Reuters reports. Biden hasn't yet announced whether he'll seek the presidency, but some Democratic donors are hoping he will.

Draft Biden is also adding staff in Florida, a purple state that votes two weeks after Super Tuesday. They already set up camp in the states that hold the earliest primaries: Iowa, New Hampshire, South Carolina, and Nevada.

Speculation around Biden's decision to challenge Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders, and the rest of the Democratic primary field has increased in recent weeks, despite his admission that he's still not sure if he's ready after his eldest son's death in May.
