Has followed by does?
Hi,
John has more dirt on Mike than Laura has/does on Tina.
When comparing like this, can we repeat 'has' twice? Or the second time it should be 'does' (Laura does on Tina)?
Thanks.

"Has" twice is better, and I would expect to hear that over "does", but "does" is not unnatural in casual speech.
