Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s campaign released staff diversity numbers on Saturday after months of delay, revealing that the campaign’s staff is mostly women and that more than one-third are people of color and prompting the Trump campaign to release its own numbers. Biden’s full-time staff includes 35% people of color, and his senior staff is 36% people of color. Moreover, 53% of the full-time staff are women, as are 58% of senior staffers. The Trump campaign said its senior staff was 52% women, and the full-time staff was 56% women. Verizon Media, HuffPost’s parent company, has yet to release staff diversity numbers for HuffPost, despite repeated requests from HuffPost’s staff union.
