SHOW NOTES:

    • Employers are having a difficult time finding workers due to unemployment benefits being so high.
    • Automation is already replacing human workers.
    • Campaign violations will stick with you forever.
    • Before you even get started, visit your elections board, secretary of state, or FEC to get the campaign rules. Know the rules before you get in the game.
    • When people donate to your campaign, to that vision, you are just part of the same vision. They are not giving you that money.
    • Be fully transparent with loans to your campaign.
    • Get a reliable treasurer and not have it be you as the candidate or an immediate family.
    • Be aware of campaign disclaimer requirements. There are different requirements for different parts of your campaign.
    • Avoid extreme underhanded tactics like phone line jamming.
    • Stay away from ballot harvesting. If you're in a place where it's legal, make sure you have a system to keep the ballot collection completely above board
