Why Do We Care?
Broadcast Campaigning
One to Many
Push Technologies:
Speeches
Mailings
Rallies
TV & Radio Ads

To actually participate,
you have to go somewhere:
Phone banks
Headquarters
Neighborhood Parties
Broadcast Campaigning

Roles Clearly Defined
• Candidate is the messenger
• Volunteers are participants
• Voters are passive receptors
Broadcast Campaigning

• Voters are alienated from the process
• Voters feel disconnected
• Voters are cynical and don’t trust the message
• Voters are not engaged
Broadcast Campaigning
The messenger becomes the listener.
The listener becomes the messenger.
Stories are told and shared.
Donors become fundraisers.
Everyone participates. Everyone can play every role.
Participatory Campaigning

Use these technologies to:
• Build relationships among supporters
• Create a campaign community
• Engage citizens in the process
• Turn every supporter into a volunteer
• Provide tools for campaigning from any place
at any time
• Share everything to build trust
• Get your message out, unfiltered
Using Social Networking
We’ve entered a new era in political
campaigning, government and politics.
Defense Department study on the use of
Social Networking… New Media

“Ignore it at your peril”
Social Media Technologies

Facebook
Twitter
YouTube
Flickr

All of these have been
created for the
purpose of sharing
information
It’s all about SHARING!
