Functions of a Political Party

The election is a year away. We must create committees to select who can best represent our party's views.

Our party can arrange a meet-and-greet with the local press to show voters where we stand on campaign issues.

Our work does not end after an election. Even though our party did not win, we still need to watch those in office and notify the public of any wrongdoings.

The cost of a tv ad is $10,000 , but our party's money is well spent this way as we approach this election. We will do more fund-raising if that is what it takes to support our candidate.

Voters want to know! Members of our party will distribute flyers, pamphlets, buttons, and stickers. They can use social media and political blogs to reach voters.

All those in favor of Mr. Smith to represent our party, raise your hand.

After our party's candidate are known, we need to attract as many voters as possible. Members of our party can show their support by placing a campaign poster in their yard.
