If you don’t already have a website set up for your campaign, Electable is ready to launch your Mayor or, Council campaign today with our Basic Campaign Website, or our Managed Campaign Website.

Having an electoral candidate website gives members of the public an opportunity to understand your campaign in your own words, and spend as much time as they want reading about how you will support your shared community. In 2022, having an election website is generally an expectation of candidates for mayor, city council, or school board trustee. It’s important to let your constituents get to know you, and even better, to share your website with other voters if they really care about your policies, direction, and platform.
