Running Smarter Political Campaigns with an AI Assistant

Where do you turn when you need campaign advice? Whether you’ve got a question about your voter outreach strategy or need to workshop your campaign messaging, where you turn matters. 

At GoodParty.org, we know there are times when you need campaign guidance in a hurry. That’s why we built the AI Campaign Assistant — so candidates can have 24/7 access to our wealth of political campaign expertise.

How to Overcome Obstacles with the AI Campaign Assistant

Political campaigns can be complicated beasts. Between filing deadlines, campaign compliance laws, and collecting voter signatures, it's easy to feel overwhelmed. Especially as a candidate without major-party backing, you need a resource you can rely on for sound guidance.

GoodParty.org’s AI Campaign Assistant is here to help.

Once you’ve made your profile with GoodParty.org, the AI Campaign Assistant draws on your campaign data — both the details you’ve entered manually and public information about your election, like how many votes you need to win — to provide you with customized responses.

Here are a few examples of the challenges the AI Campaign Assistant can help you solve:

Refining Your Campaign Strategy

Have you found yourself feeling stuck at any point during the campaign journey? It can be hard to know what campaign activities will be most effective at moving the needle for your campaign.

The AI Campaign Assistant considers your current campaign progress and recommends the top three activities you should focus on next. 

Depending on what stage of the campaign you’re in, it might recommend focusing on activities like:

• Developing your policy platform

• Creating a strong online presence

• Building an effective volunteer team

• Door knocking and canvassing

• Phone banking

• Texting to remind supporters to vote

• Maximizing digital advertising

You can then ask follow-up questions to make a more detailed plan and reach your campaign goals.

Crafting an Effective “Why” Statement

Why are you running for office? This can seem like a simple question until you try answering it in a way that resonates with voters. Our AI Assistant can help you craft an effective “Why I’m Running” statement for your campaign — not by generating generic copy, but by engaging in a conversation that gets to the heart of your campaign.

Expect insightful questions from the AI Assistant like:

• Was there a specific incident, experience, or realization that made you decide to run for office?

• What do you think is at stake in this election, and what kind of impact do you hope to have if you're elected?

• What values or experiences do you think will guide your decision-making as an elected official?

With each answer, the assistant helps refine your campaign story until it authentically captures who you are and why voters should care about your campaign.

Voter data is an essential resource for any candidate who wants to run a strategic campaign for office — but it can be difficult to know where to get started.

Creating Campaign Content

Need a compelling email to announce your candidacy? A script to give volunteers for canvassing? Social media posts that don't sound like they were written by a committee? 

The AI Assistant is an easy way to create compelling campaign content, from press releases to quick Facebook captions.
