Interested in Running? We Can Help!
Congratulations! Just by THINKING ABOUT running for office, you have joined a tiny minority of Americans who want to get involved in politics. But you might be hesitant because you have questions. Questions like how much it will cost, how much help you will need, where to get that help, how to join a political party, what is the paperwork like, and so on. Maybe you think you are not the best public speaker, or are not wealthy enough or don’t have the time. You’re not even sure what office you want to run for!
Stop.
Breathe.
Breathe again.
Every candidate who ever ran has been in that mind space before. It is normal, it is fine, it is a sign you care. Don’t worry, we can help. Every member of The Loyal Opposition team has experience running for office and helping other campaigns. We’ve been there. And we’ve learned. And, most importantly, we know who to call.
We can advise you. TLO offers a FREE one hour consultation for any Democrat/Progressive/Liberal/left-leaning independent who is strongly considering running for local or state office in Sumner County, Tennessee. (Not in Sumner? Let us know, we can probably hook you up with who you need to talk to. Republican or conservative, sorry you landed on the wrong page!)
We can advise you on matters like:
What are the rules?
What are the deadlines?
How much will it cost?
How do I raise money?
How do I find a campaign manager? A treasurer? Do I even need these?
What can I run for?
How do I create mail, logos, signs, a website, flyers, phone banks, a texting plan, a social media presence?
Can the state and local parties help?
Who are the local experts on all of these things?
