Political Campaign Tips and Strategies by Online Candidate

Making Your Campaign’s FAQs Work Harder for You

One problem facing local political campaign websites is that there just isn’t enough content. There are times when we get little information about a candidate, their positions, or even why they are running.

A lack of material makes building out a website difficult. This applies to both text and photos when there’s little provided for us to work with.

If you find yourself starting a campaign site or updating one, there’s a pretty simple way to expand your content.

Incorporate some frequently asked questions!

The Power of a Well-Crafted FAQ Section

FAQs can improve a visitor’s active engagement and help build trust and transparency. Addressing common questions about yourself and your policies helps make information easier to find and understand. And answering tough questions directly shows you’re not just knowledgeable, but also honest.

What to Ask and What to Answer

Start by categorizing your most asked or most likely questions. Group them into sections like policy positions, your background, campaign specifics, and how to vote. Read through your existing campaign material, organize your initial questions, and start writing out the answers for later reference.

Remember, what seems obvious to you might not be to everyone. You may live and breathe policy details and the current political situation, but most voters do not.

Consider these categories:

Policy Positions: Cover your stances on key issues. This could include local development, education, economic policy, environmental concerns, and more. If you break out your policies into separate pages, place relevant FAQs on each page. Start your list with the most common question or one that would get the most attention.
Your Background: Share information about your personal history, your qualifications, and what motivates your candidacy. This can be appended to your about page.
Campaign Specifics: You can even add Q&As to provide details about campaign events, volunteer opportunities, and donation information.
How to Vote: Your voting information page is perfect for detailing voting procedures, including registration, polling locations, mail-in ballots, and important dates.

Grouping and splitting FAQs helps organize the content and makes it easier for users to find information.

Example FAQs for candidates seeking various offices:

Local Office Candidate:

Q: What are your plans to improve local schools?
A: I plan to advocate for increased funding for our schools. I will also promote the integration of technology in classrooms, and support policies that attract and retain qualified teachers.

State Legislature Candidate:

Q: How do you propose to address the state’s budget deficit?
A: My approach includes reviewing and adjusting wasteful spending. I want to explore new revenue sources without overburdening taxpayers. I also want to invest in economic growth initiatives to bring in new business and increase our tax base.

Congressional Candidate:

Q: What is your stance on healthcare reform?
A: I believe in affordable healthcare for all. This includes supporting measures to reduce prescription drug prices, protecting pre-existing condition coverage, and expanding public healthcare options.

“Write content in the active voice: A sentence is said to be in the active voice when the subject of the sentence performs the action of the verb. For example, ‘The dog bit the mailman’ is better than ‘the mailman was bitten by the dog.’” – Running for Office as an Online Candidate

FAQ Tips

Be Clear: Your answers should be easy to understand. Don’t use jargon and complex language. If it wouldn’t make sense to someone unfamiliar with a particular issue, simplify it.
Don’t Dodge the Difficult: Address sensitive topics head-on with honest and considerate answers. If you have a position, explain it. This shows you’re not just open but also respectful of differing viewpoints.
A Picture Is Worth a Thousand Words: Sometimes, text isn’t enough. Embedded videos, infographics, and links can be added into your answers. These elements help break up the text and keep engagement high.
Don’t Let FAQs Be Everything: Don’t let FAQs be a replacement for your main content. Your whole site can’t just be lists of questions and answers. (It could, but that would be odd.)
Keep the Lines Open: Allow visitors to submit questions through your site’s contact page. You can also ask for feedback on your website or through social media.
Have a Little Fun: Throw in an interesting or fun related question just to keep things relatable. This is good to add on your About page.
Update When Necessary: Update your content with new questions or answers due to events or policy changes.

After visitors have their answers, what’s next? Whether it’s volunteering, donating, or learning more, guide them to the next step. Consider adding a call to action to each page or FAQ block.

Your FAQs are a simple way to get your points across without going into excessive detail. Another great benefit is that all that information can help with your site’s search optimization.

Once you’ve added your FAQs, go back through them, and have others read through them as well. Do your answers speak to your values and the concerns of your voters? Are there any obvious questions that are missing?

In the end, it’s about making it easier for voters to learn more about you and about your platform.

10 Things That Separate Winning Candidates From Losing Candidates

What separates winning political candidates from those who lose elections? It’s more than just the number of votes.

There’s no such thing as a perfect campaign. Regardless of how hard a candidate may work, there are many factors that can contribute to an Election Day loss. Have you ever wondered what truly distinguishes the winners? It’s rarely as straightforward as the poll numbers might suggest.

Here are some key strategies and often-overlooked details that set successful campaigns apart from the rest:.

1) Failing to put together a campaign plan. You can enter a race late, but you can never start preparing for one early enough. Plan your election season calendar, organizational structure, fundraising strategy, and budget. Learn about the position you seek and the issues that will define the campaign. A robust digital strategy should be put together for your social media presence and how you will connect with people online.

2) Lacking a coherent campaign message. Through your issues and personal story, convey a clear and compelling vision for your community. Define yourself, define your opponents, and let voters know what’s at stake in the election. Stick to your talking points as repetition creates consistency in your positions. Your campaign message may need to shift as things change. But you should always stay true to what you stand for.

3) Focusing on issues that most voters don’t care about. In one local election where we live, a candidate constantly harped about the problem with dog waste on our sidewalks. She did it so much that we called her the ‘dog poop candidate’. With everything going on at the time in our area, stressing that particular issue over others simply did not motivate voters… and she lost.

4) Treating fundraising as a secondary task. Raising money for a campaign is hard and it takes time. Start early and start strong. Don’t limit gathering financial support from just friends and family. Weak fundraising efforts will prevent you from reaching your campaign goals. Set up online fundraising tools as early as you can. Budget for your initial fundraisers, and be realistic about how much you will be able to raise throughout the season.

Sometimes this becomes a chicken and egg situation, where you need to raise money to hold fundraisers, but you need fundraisers to raise money. Consider how you will raise seed money. It may be through a personal loan or through donations from close family and friends. You may not like or feel comfortable asking people to contribute, but it’s something you need to do if you plan on a political career.

5) Failing to personally reach out to others. Following the global events 2020, many candidates adopted and continue to effectively use remote campaigning techniques. While online events and connections are useful, don’t forget that the personal touch matters most whether reaching out to donors or voters.

6) Candidates that manage their own campaigns. A campaign manager should be dedicated to handling the day-to-day operations of a campaign, not the candidate. While some very local elected positions can be a single-person operation, most political campaigns are far too complex and time-consuming for an individual to handle without help. Campaign managers should typically be people with a lot of experience and connections in the community. They should also have a strong understanding of electoral rules and campaign management. They need to have a knack for networking, be willing to take risks, and have the ability to balance strategy with political acumen.

7) Putting too much priority on things that have little effect on the election. Sure, designing attractive campaign pins can be fun, but are they really that important? Focus on activities that will make a difference. For example, don’t overlook the role of your volunteers. If you don’t have a plan for how to engage them, you might not make the best use of them.

8) Spending too much money on polling and paid media outreach. Do not just rely on digital ads and email. Focus on building an organization of supporters and volunteers who will work toward promoting the campaign.

9) Spending too much, too soon. See point #1 on planning a budget. Set your campaign budget and stick to it. Underestimating how much you will spend can lead to a tough situation, especially in the last few weeks of a race. Getting additional donations in the final days can be helpful, but don’t count on them for your get out the vote efforts.

10) Failure to ‘make the ask’. This includes failing to make the ask for donations – and even failing to ask for a vote. Tell voters what you want them to do. Tell them on every print piece, and them on every page of your campaign website. If you are asking for donations, make it easy for them to do so. If you want their vote, don’t forget to give them the election date! When asking for support, just be straightforward. Whether it’s for donations or votes, make it clear how people can help.

It all makes a difference

If there is a common thread to this list, it’s that running for office takes a lot of preparation. We’ve seen personally, on a local level, people who really want to make a difference or want to make a change in their community just jump into the political process. They may run virtually alone, doing everything themselves and perhaps trying to do it on a shoestring budget.

Unfortunately, more times than not, these candidates don’t win. They may often be the best, most qualified candidate. They may know policy and they may know how to get things done.

The only thing they failed to learn was how to properly run a political campaign.

Don’t let it happen to you.

A political campaign slogan is a short phrase that best identifies a candidate and their candidacy. It should capture a voter’s attention and address their concerns and issues. Campaign slogans should also be memorable and concise.

Easy to do, right?

It doesn’t matter if you are running for mayor, sheriff, school board, city council, county, town, state legislature, or even Congress. The slogan you choose should represent the essence of your message to voters.

Punctuation can change the meaning of text. There’s a big difference between using an exclamation point and a question mark (Like Jeb!). You can use a period to emphasize the statement. For social media, a slogan should be hashtag-friendly. Tools like alliteration or rhyme are often used to help them stick in the public’s memory.

In fact, some politicians really have a tough time choosing one.

Judicial Candidate Slogans – Experience and Integrity

Candidates for judge typically create slogans that emphasize their judicial temperament and personal integrity. (The same goes for district attorney candidates.) These races tend to be non-partisan, which is why a slogan for a judicial candidate tends to be more personal in nature. Judges don’t run on specific policies when reaching out to voters; that’s what the politicians do.

Is Being Funny Worth the Risk?

Funny or humorous messaging will often get attention in politics. However, while humor can grab attention, be careful. This tactic can backfire if it’s perceived as tone-deaf or insensitive, You run the risk of voters not taking you seriously. It’s also possible that some people will take a joke the wrong way and be insulted by your attempt at humor.

Don’t pick your nose, pick [Name]
With great power comes great responsibility (from Spider-Man)
If you must waste your vote, waste it on me
I think, therefore I am voting for [Name]
Be a pal, vote for this gal
I’ll do my best, but I can’t promise anything
In this election … You can’t do worse
You’ve tried the rest, now choose the best

Here are some more funny examples.

How to Come up with a Great Slogan

Political slogans that are short and memorable work best. Forget weak and passive phrasing. Start by answering a few questions:

What is your motivation for running for office?
Do you have a core value or issue you are trying to impress on voters?
Is there something specific that you want voters to know?
What is important to your community?
Does your messaging relate to you being a Democrat, a Republican, or running on a third-party ticket?

If you are going to recycle a tagline from another candidate, you will, by association, take on the good and bad of that previous use. You might want to do a little research first.

There have been instances where a candidate has taken a political opponent’s message. In one race, the same tagline was used on promotional material by two candidates in a judicial primary. There were allegations of voter confusion, defamation, and theft. Considering how much of a distraction plagiarism can become, it’s best not to swipe material. And you should never adopt the messaging of your opposition. Nor should you use copyrighted material (visual or text). That will get you in trouble.

Changing a slogan during a campaign

Altering your brand identity, such as your slogan, while campaigning can cause confusion among your supporters and voters. It raises the risk that you will be perceived as inconsistent. On top of that, you’ll have to update all of your advertising, brochures, signs and print materials.

If you need to make a change in your messaging, do it as early as possible.

Found the right slogan? Great! Now use it on all of your election campaign materials, from signs to mailers to your campaign website. It should remain consistent and endure throughout the season, right through Election Day.

Political Campaigns Aren’t Won By Part-Timers

We get it. You likely have a full-time job that keeps you busy. And depending on the elected position and the circumstances of your race, you may not need to run a 24/7 campaign.

But if you are going to run for office, you need to understand what you are getting into. Political campaigning requires a real commitment that will challenge and change your daily life for the foreseeable future. Whether you are running for town council or state representative, you’ll need to put in the work to win.

Even if your time is limited, your campaign will require as much effort as you can give.

Because no candidate ever won an election by doing too little.

The Time Commitment of Political Campaigns

Picture your calendar packed with activities like door-to-door canvassing, tireless fundraising events, and intense strategy meetings, along with public rallies and private appearances. This isn’t just the routine for state or congressional races; even highly-contested local elections can demand a huge level of engagement.

And that can be tough if you are employed.

Some prospective candidates assume that simply announcing their candidacy—essentially ‘throwing their hat in the ring’—is all they need to do. However, getting on the ballot is only the beginning. It also marks the start of an emotionally taxing period of public scrutiny and personal criticism.

There are three major tasks that will require attention:

Fundraising: Remember the old telephone ad, “Reach out and touch someone?” That’s what you’ll need to do if you want to have donors. Fundraising is more than just sending emails and letters asking people for money. You’ll need to build and leverage relationships with donors, especially the more generous ones. This involves phone calls, meetings, and events, making fundraising an ongoing and time-consuming task. Hosting a fundraising dinner might require weeks of preparation, securing a venue, and inviting potential donors. During the event, you’ll need to engage with attendees and make a case for their support.

Canvassing and Connecting: Especially for local races, door-to-door canvassing is a great way to connect with constituents. You’ll definitely hear some stories from the people you visit, which can be both inspiring and draining. Even if you’re a fast walker and you have other volunteers helping, canvassing takes a lot of time. Expect to spend several evenings and weekends walking neighborhoods. You’ll talk to residents, listen to their concerns, and gather support. The benefits are more exposure and increased voter turnout, especially if your election date is not widely advertised.
Strategy and Adaptation: Political strategy is not set in stone. It evolves in keeping with current events, examining voter feedback, and keeping tabs on your opponent’s moves. Staying relevant requires daily involvement and close coordination with your campaign team. If a local issue becomes prominent, you might need to quickly shift focus. This could mean quick strategy meetings and new campaign material creation, all while keeping your core message consistent. You have to adapt quickly to stay relevant and effective. Staying on top of your campaign requires daily involvement and coordination with your campaign team.

These tasks form the core of your campaign. They’re not just chores that can be put off to the spare hours of your evenings or weekends. You need to always be on your toes, responsive, and energetically involved with all the time you have available.

Every handshake, every conversation, and every contact is important. You have time constraints both on the calendar and in the hours of the day.

There’s a reason they’re called races.

You can’t snooze your way through the election season.

The Drawbacks of Being a Weekend Campaigner

If you’re only engaging in campaign activities on weekends or the occasional evening, you’re missing out. Your opponents are likely putting in more time and getting things done.

What will they be doing?

They’ll be making more connections.
Raising more money.
They’ll be spending time refining their strategies.
And be seen more regularly by voters.

A half-hearted effort will put you at a disadvantage. Look at successful politicians. They didn’t win by phoning it in. They immersed themselves in the process. They understood that every interaction and every decision mattered. If your opponent attends a weekday community event and you don’t, they gain visibility and potential votes that you miss out on.

Think about your supporters, donors, and the party that’s backing you. They invest time, money, and advocacy on your behalf. They deserve your full commitment.

Anything less can seem disrespectful. You owe everyone your best effort.

The Cost of Lazy Campaigning

There are many who failed because they didn’t fully commit. Many years ago, we worked on a local race where three candidates ran together as a ‘slate’ for seats on the town board. One candidate only agreed to appear on the ballot because he was asked. He was not particularly invested from the beginning, and it showed.

He didn’t attend many events or strategy meetings. He did little or no canvassing. The amount of money that was raised through his efforts was negligible.

Basically, all he contributed was allowing himself to be included in the advertising, the print ads, and the website for the campaign.

In fact, late that August, when the campaign was gearing up, he went away on vacation. As you can imagine, that didn’t go well with the other candidates. They were furious.

So, what happened?

Obviously, the candidate’s personal campaign lacked momentum and visibility. He basically ran on the coattails of the slate while contributing little personally. Of the three that ran, the candidate who barely participated was the only one who lost.

Commit Fully or Reconsider

Go big, or go home. If you’re at the crossroads of committing to run, consider the dedication, time, and energy you’ll need to win. If you’re not ready to commit fully, it might be wise to reconsider.

After all, those who will support you and your future constituents deserve your best effort. Go give it to them!

Mastering Political Storytelling: Your Secret Campaign Weapon

If this is your first campaign for political office, there’s one tool you absolutely need to use: political storytelling.

A smart politician knows that most voters remember stories and narratives, not facts and figures. Connections are not made by listing policies. Instead, great messaging is delivered through effective political storytelling techniques.

In this article, we explain how the art of storytelling can help set your vision and enhance your campaign.

The Benefits of Storytelling in Your Campaign

Let’s examine how an interesting narrative might enhance your campaign’s strategies.

Enhanced Voter Engagement: By using storytelling, you can more deeply engage voters by making complex policies more vivid and easier to understand.
Building Trust and Credibility: Effective storytelling helps establish trust and credibility, as personal stories often resonate more than abstract policies.
Differentiation from Opponents: A good story and anecdotes can help separate you from your opponents both with voters and the media.
Emotional Resonance: Want to win more support and loyalty? Good storytelling techniques tap into the emotions of the electorate.
Memorability: A well-told story will leave your message in voters’ minds long after they’ve heard it.
Greater Shareability: Compelling narratives are more likely to be shared on social media, expanding your campaign’s reach organically.

The Why and How of Storytelling in Political Campaigns

So, why does storytelling work in political campaigns? It’s rooted in human psychology. Stories stick in our minds because they create real emotion and bonds between the teller and the listener. Research shows that narratives activate multiple areas of the brain, increasing retention and emotional connection.

Consider Barack Obama’s 2008 “Yes We Can” slogan. The hope and change narrative connected with millions of supporters.

Historically, political leaders who mastered storytelling techniques often swayed the public. Franklin D. Roosevelt’s fireside chats during the Great Depression are a classic example. They were radio speeches, but more. The chats made suffering Americans feel like he was actually speaking with them and sharing in their struggles.

Successful politicians often strike a balance between facts and emotion. For example, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez often shares her background as a waitress prior to becoming a member of Congress. She combines her personal background with policy proposals. Her stories reflect the common struggles of many of her working-class constituents. Because of this, many see in her a reflection of their own experiences.

Ronald Reagan was well known for his stories and anecdotes. He often referenced the idea of America as a “shining city upon a hill.” Derived from a speech by John Winthrop, this phrase emphasized Reagan’s belief in American exceptionalism and the country’s potential to be a beacon of hope and freedom for the world. With this, Reagan painted a picture to voters that the United States was a unique and exceptional nation.

Crafting Your Narrative Through Authenticity

Any story you tell needs to be authentic. Voters can smell insincerity a mile away, and the media may check into any claims you make. Reflect on your experiences and how they shaped your beliefs and policies. The most powerful campaign narratives are rooted in truth, personal growth, and relatable struggles.

For example, if you are seeking a school board seat, share your journey as a public school teacher or as a parent of a student. For example, when explaining why you’re seeking office, you could say:

“I’ve known what it’s like to face financial uncertainty and job loss firsthand. That’s why I’m running for city council—to create economic stability and opportunities for all, so no one has to go through what my family and I endured.”
“I’ve seen the flaws in our criminal justice system up close. Whether as a victim, advocate, or someone affected by incarceration, I’ve witnessed the need for reform. I’m running for sheriff to ensure that our justice system works for everyone, regardless of their background or circumstances.”
“As a parent, I see firsthand the value of quality education. I understand the concerns of today’s students. I’m running for local school board to ensure that our district prioritizes student success and provide equal opportunities for all.”

Tailor your story to the specific concerns of your constituents. Your personal story should ideally address the concerns of your constituents. For example, if you’re running in a district with a strong focus on agriculture, weave in how your policies will directly impact and improve the farming community.

Tailoring Your Message and Breaking it Down

You are not going to be able to repeat your entire history constantly. Because of this, you’ll want to take your greater story and break it down into anecdotes, memorable quotes, and even relatable humor.

Memorize key anecdotes, as you’ll be using them on the campaign trail over and over.
Keep your stories concise and easy to follow. Avoid unnecessary details that might distract from the main point.
Craft impactful quotes that are short, relevant, and emotionally resonant.

Your anecdotes and quotes should seamlessly fit into your speeches, fundraising drives, and campaign materials. They should reinforce your key messages without feeling forced.

Overcoming Storytelling Challenges

In an era of fake news and negative campaigning, skepticism is high. Be prepared to back up your statements and narratives with facts. When challenged, respond with grace, evidence, and confidence.

Some ways to fight back include:

Highlighting your strengths and continuing to showcase your vision.
Educating your audience when misinformation spreads.
Crafting a counter-narrative that addresses negativity without perpetuating it. For instance, if attacked on a policy issue, respond with the benefits of your approach.

Be adaptable as political landscapes change rapidly. Your core story—rooted in your values and beliefs—should remain consistent, but be flexible in your messaging.

Stay true to your core message, and don’t get lost in the noise.

Elevating Your Online Presence with Stories

When it comes to your campaign’s digital strategy, one place that is ripe for storytelling techniques is your political campaign website. Here are ideas of where and how to effectively weave stories into your political campaign website.

Homepage Narrative: Use your homepage to introduce your core narrative. This sets the tone for what voters can expect from your campaign.
About Page Storytelling: Your about page is the perfect place for a detailed personal story. Connect your life experiences to your political aspirations and policy stances.
Blog Posts: Regular blog posts that incorporate storytelling can keep your audience engaged. For example, share experiences of people you’ve met on the campaign trail.
Testimonials Section: Featuring stories from supporters or beneficiaries of your policies can provide social proof and add a layer of authenticity to your campaign.
Issue Pages: On pages where you discuss specific issues, include short anecdotes or stories that highlight why these issues matter to you personally and to your constituents.

Using compelling narratives on your website offers many benefits, including:

Increased Time Spent on Site: Engaging content encourages them to spend more time exploring your site.
Enhanced Emotional Connection: Stories can evoke emotions, creating a deeper bond between you and your potential voters.
Improved Message Retention: Information wrapped in a narrative is more likely to be remembered than plain facts.
Boosted Search Rankings: Well-structured, keyword-optimized stories can improve your site’s visibility.

Conclusion: Storytelling is Your Secret Weapon

Storytelling isn’t just a tool—it’s your campaign’s secret weapon. Let your personal story shine through in every speech, every policy, and every engagement. Make it the central pillar of your campaign’s communication strategy.
