The GOP presidential nominee’s campaign opened the office on May 3 in Edison, N.J., to a welcoming crowd of over 1,000 supporters, but there is now an empty office space there, the report said.

The office was vacated a little over a month ago, Politico said, with Federal Election Commission filings indicating that the last rent payment was made on May 11.

Trump earlier this year insisted he could win New Jersey, which hasn’t gone Republican in a presidential election since 1988.

“I mean, I love New Jersey," Trump said in late May. "I am New Jersey. Like a second home. I have property there. I have a lot of employees there. And frankly, I think we're going to do well.”

But the gap has widened since then. The most recent major poll of the state, taken in late June, showed Clinton leading by 21 points.

“It’s not a surprise that he’s written off New Jersey because for the first time in my political life, he has to worry about winning states like Arizona and Georgia,” Democratic strategist Julie Roginsky told Politico.

Clinton has four campaign offices in the state.
