Welcome
Aboard
You
are an advisor to a presidential candidate going into the last few weeks of a
competitive campaign presidential campaign. As you know, presidential campaign s
are run under the Electoral College system which will affect your strategy. Time
is one of your own and your and the candidate’s scarcest resources. Planning
events and doing strategy research both take time. You have
a limited amount time and resources to gather information and a limited number
of days to send your candidate out on the campaign trail.
