[QUOTE="BigUnionGuy, post: 3041060, member: 4992"] No. What I meant was; Taking the time to campaign, and forking up the money to do it. You can't win a Local election by standing at the gate handing out fliers that were printed on your home computer. We do hats, shirts, pens, buttons, signs, cookouts, home mailers.... etc. [I]All paid for by the [U]slate members[/U] running for office[/I]. A $30,000 budget is a good starting point. We even rented a motor home for 3 months, to travel to various Barns (companies) and campaign for days at a time. In the final weeks, we did 24/7. Ragtag TDU people (in my Local) could never keep up. They weren't committed to the investment of time or money. Trying to run down your competition with mere words, never works. Members don't like the negativity. So, there you go. My proven method of winning a Local Union election. [USER=14176]@Bubblehead[/USER].... that freebie is just for you. ;) Time and money, is all it takes. (with a positive message) -Bug- [/QUOTE]
