Federal, state and local elections are coming, and if you’re running for political office (or are representing a candidate) you know better than anyone else how fast you need to move to ramp up your campaign.
Here in Indiana, the filing deadline to run is February 5th. Then the fun begins!
PRIMARIES – MAY 3RD, 2016: ROUND ONE … FIGHT!
You’ve got some calculations to make as you head into election season if you’re running on a major party ticket. How much do you need to spend on advertising to secure a win in the primary? You may be tempted to hold back, save your pennies for the general election, and hope for the best. But even if there’s absolutely no one running against you, wouldn’t you rather lock up votes for the general now than try to win them later?
GENERAL ELECTION – NOVEMBER 8TH, 2016: ROUND TWO … FIGHT!
Time to add more fun into the mix. In this glorious democracy you don’t have to be a Republican or Democrat to run. Third party candidates can file to run in the general as late as June 30th, and independent “write-in” candidates by July 5th.
Now the field is cluttered with signage from multiple candidates for multiple races. You’d better be prepared to stand out from the pack. Hopefully you started early during primary season, but if not, better late than never.
- Yard Signs are one of the most common ways for candidates to keep their names on voters’ minds. These also give candidates the benefit of getting their strongest supporters engaged in the campaign.
- Rally Signs offer even opportunity for engagement. It is powerfully influential to see a friend or neighbor waving a sign in the air at a rally.
- Vehicle Wraps don’t have to be permanent. We offer low-cost signage for temporary use on cars, vans, trailers, whatever candidates or their support teams are using to travel to and from appearances.
