Where We Go from Here: Building Better Democratic Campaigns Together
December 5, 2024
I originally started planning for this blog months ago with the intent to kick it off after the 2024 election. However, after the results of November 5th, I feel it’s important to acknowledge the election before moving forward.
The recent election results are a hard pill to swallow, but this is not the time to give up. We must regroup, reflect, and move forward with renewed determination into the 2025 and 2026 election cycles.
These setbacks remind us why we fight—for the people who need our voices and for the principles that drive progress. Together, we can take the lessons from 2024 and turn them into victories in the years to come. And we must!
On to 2025-26!
Hi, my name is Mia Phifer, and I’m so glad you’re here. I decided to start this blog for the same reason I began consulting—I believe that every Democrat deserves a fair shot at running a quality campaign, whether or not they come from wealth, influence, or have the right connections.
Together, we can continue the fight and ensure that the progressive voices in our country are heard and supported at every level.
Whether you’re exploring the idea of running for office, seeking tips to sharpen your current campaign, or just looking for a community of like-minded advocates, this blog is here for you.
I’ll be covering topics ranging from fundraising strategies to effective campaign management, and every once in a while, I’ll toss in a “war story” or two from the field to give you a firsthand look at what works—and what doesn’t.
My hope is that this space serves as a resource, a community, and an inspiration. Democracy needs all of us right now, and every single effort counts. I’d love to hear your thoughts, your challenges, and any topics you’d like to see covered here. Let’s build something powerful, together.
Thank you for stopping by—I can’t wait to see where we can go from here.
Stay strong and stay engaged!
Mia
