I think the biggest issue is the short campaign time. You have to pay a pretty big premium to get someone to quit a job with good stock bonuses for 45 days of work. It’s also very challenging to implement a full security Implementation solo in one week (or whatever aggressive timeline is needed to prevent hacks from day one). Hiring a team is cost prohibitive in most countries.

That is absolutely true. Not going to recruit a person like that for just 45 days. Organizations like the DNC need to have such a person on staff full time, 365 days a year, whether an election campaign is active or not.
