I am planning to run this Campaign 80% on my own, using AI-tech platforms if needed, and just day-to-day canvassing of the neighborhoods, driving my car around, handing out flyers, banners, slogans... and much email correspondence. I figure I can get by with 50K in 2025, and next year, I would need 150K in Funding. The General Election for the 8th Congressional District is in November 3rd, 2026. I have 20 months to campaign... for 2025, I will set my foundation and do grassroots door-to-door canvassing and email campaigns. For 2026, if I have not garnered support from any larger independent political groups, I will hopefully amass 50K in donations and pay 2-3 people to help me in 2026. I have kick-started (seed money) from my own personal funds.
