Now, this will only work for Republicans running for office. Democrats will find this grassroots campaign strategy totally useless because this strategy is based on truth, commitment and courage. I have grown accustomed to grassroots campaigning because my last election bid was run on a shoestring budget.
I want to thank the 278,088 Miami-Dade County residents who voted for me in the 2020 County Clerk of the Courts election. Voters in both Miami-Dade and Broward Counties can be assured that I will work hard for your votes in the 2022 election. The highlights of a grassroots campaign are the following:
- The grassroots candidate talks to friends and strangers to get signed petitions to be on the ballot.
- Campaign fundraising is directed to individuals, small groups and lots of letter writing to donors.
- Incoming and outgoing calls to local small business owners are given priority status.
- Donation request letters are mailed to individuals and past donors.
- Candidates write blog articles and produce podcast episodes to communicate their platforms to the public.
- Candidates have easily, recitable platform messages hardwired in their live presentations.
- Candidates create a following, their own body-politic to generate campaign buzz.
- Over time, the grassroots campaign takes a life of its own and begins to generate voter consciousness resulting in a consistent flow of campaign donations.
- And for the 2022 Congressional race, I definitely need to have enough funds to finish strong to represent District 23 voters the best way I can.
- Special interest donors who donate in return for future promises.
- Candidates who are neither seen nor heard by voters, but have huge campaign funds.
