The objective is to familiarize students with these techniques so that they can become effective campaign volunteers. Topics include the candidate and the press, campaign publicity materials, organization of headquarters, receptions, the telephone campaign, and contact groups. Students are instructed about avoiding a hostile press, writing press releases, striving for media coverage, and designing materials such as leaflets, bumper stickers, and lawn signs. Instruction for the physical preparation of headquarters and staff training requirements are also included. Telephone strategies involve timing, securing the proper party, and conducting conversations. The document concludes with a list of helpful community groups. (KC)
