Municipal Campaigns
Convergence Targeted Communications combines years of experience on national campaigns with a passion for local campaigns. We’ve helped win Mayoral campaigns in some of the largest cities in the United States, and city council races with 2,000 voters.
The past decade has seen an explosion in the complexity and scale of municipal races across the country. These campaigns can now take advantage of many tools that were previously the domain of higher-budget federal and state races. To make the best use of these tools, however, they need a consulting team that truly understands municipal campaigns, which are very different from the partisan, binary general elections that are the most common focus of our industry (read more about our approach to these elections here).
