Countdown to election - 81 days
Originally, I intended for these election updates to be posted more frequently, but until I announce my campaign there's only a certain amount I can disclose. I intended to do my third update about a week ago, but to be frank I had really nothing new to say. Basically, I was in the planning stage, and to be honest, I still am. With that said though, there is progress to report.
Starting from the beginning, the brochure has some gaps remaining, specifically photos of me in the community, remarks by my endorsers and the background design. With that said however, the brochures will be purchased by mid October so it is not one of my biggest worries about the election.
The day to day events have been figured out - specifically where I will canvass and when, along with other campaign event details. Staying with the completed tasks, the platform is done. Now it's a matter of figuring out what my keep points are during the election and how I will bring change, but I think I've found what political superiors would agree is the best route for victory. The only remaining aspect of the platform I must figure out is how to publicize it. I've got a few ideas regarding that. Finally, I've got a pretty good amount of volunteers for the election considering I've yet to go public. I could always use more though...
On the matters that still need work is social media. I've been on Facebook and Twitter for quite some time now and while my support levels there are nothing to be ashamed of considering my campaign is on the down low, I can't help but feel it should be higher. That's a shock, a candidate wanting more support! The drive for more social media supporters as a means of victory through psychology went better in July than in August but I'm assuming once the press release hits the doorsteps of voters that will shoot up immediately.
As for my mood, I'm worried but not so much about the election, yet. I'm more nervous about having everything in place for the announcement date. With just a little more work, everything will be ready.
That looks to be it for now ladies and gentlemen. I hope to be getting some photos of the campaign preparation and me out and about in Langford up within the next few days. Expanding and energizing my social media base will also be a focus. Besides that, there is little left to do. As for when I'll be updating you again on the campaign, it may just be after I announce what position I'm running for.
