Candidate and Incumbent Communication We are not your attorney We are not your employee We are not your priest or therapist We will not take a side We are your best source of information Any question that may have a general interest to all candidates will be shared with all

Ask the audience How do you address candidate questions?

50-50 Raise your hand if you include others in your election planning Raise your hand if you don’t trust anyone to help you

Who do you trust?

Building Trust When asked a question - you don’t have to answer immediately (most of the time) Take the time to get the correct answer Share the answers with staff (FAQs) Have staff sit in when you have the important conversations

No woman (or man) is an island Build your team – even if it’s a team of one Share your FAQs with other departments to ensure the same message is being delivered

You are not alone!!!! Phone a Friend (don’t use listserve for sensitive questions) Ask the audience (without shopping around for an opinion) 50-50 – What works for you and your community

When it’s done - Celebrate!
