Hello there! If you are new here, you might want to subscribe to the RSS feed for updates on this topic.

I’ve spoken with many candidates in small races. These folks are becoming pretty sophisticated in their use of data to dissect voters in their towns and target them appropriately. However, few small candidates develop a clear online strategy besides the obligatory “brochure website”, Facebook page, and Twitter account. I don’t want to put too much pressure on you all…but YOU are the future of our nation! Huh?

The local races around this nation serve as a bench for higher office. The leadership and decision making skills you hone, even in a “non-partisan” office, will drive you into contention for other races. Those races including state legislature, Gubernatorial, or even U.S. legislature need your conservative leadership.

So, start early in the game. Develop a clear…and winning online campaign strategy now. Get used to the tools and power of technology so you’re not behind when the big race comes up. Blow your competition away by bringing out voters that were ignored. We can do this…together.
