What role has the internet played in fundraising for modern political candidates?
& why is electronic advertising important to the candidates?
We can thank Obama for that. During the last Presidential election, Obama was able to unify groups with traditionally low voter turnout: Young people and Visible Minorities via FACEBOOK. And by reaching millions of supporters via the Internet he was also able to raise millions of $ from Grassroots supporters. Even until the day of the election, the Republican polls had not recognized the true number of voter turnout from these groups, and how the power of the Internet had brought the people together in a united purpose.

Let me get this straight, a political party can just go on your property in the UK without your permission? Is it a party you support? Did you once give them permission to do so?
If not, call them and ask them for rent. If it is a party you oppose, and they won’t pay rent, go to an opposing party that you support, tell them, and I promise your plight will be on the news, and possibly in some political ads. You might sue them from tearing up your garden.
Manitoba politicians had 2011 circled on their calendars since the day the NDP won a third term in office in 2007.

don’t you think the leaders of our country make great role models for our kids?
They treat each other with such respect.
I hope my kids talk about people that don’t beleive exactly like them just like our politicians do.
I think you just clinched the sarcasm trophy. I was hoping to win that 1 myself. Oh well.
I live in a state where the political ads are out of control. Every commercial break is filled to bursting with them. "If you vote for candidate X they’ll continue their job killing agenda." "A vote for proposition Y is a vote for Big Oil." The slogans just go on and on to the point where I have to tune it out for my own sanity.
Personally, I read my voter guide and do my own online research to make my ballot choices. All of these ridiculously expensive commercials are completely wasted on me. In fact, I have less and less respect for the candidates / organizations identified as being behind them. I find their assumptions about my stupidity to be insulting (as if ANYONE decides to vote for job killing bills!).
Anyway, does any else feel the same way? Is anyone using this advertising to make their ballot choices?
I, like yourself, do all my research online (voting records if applicable) and try to stay informed on what candidates stand for what. I talk to so many people who, when describing a candidate or proposition, literally reiterate a commercial that was on the tv. I find it sad that more people base their votes that way as opposed to making an informed vote. This is especially important with the lesser known elections (ie. judicial seats) But the candidates air these commercials based on the assumption that their "registered voters" will vote based on their ads.
I have just created a political website to support a candidate for presidency this election. Can I place adsense ads on the website or does it violate the TOS? I will have photos on the site that other people/websites may own but I will provide all nesscesary photo credits to those parties. Would there be another way to generate revnue that would be better than adsense ads? Would another PPC advertising agency be less strict than google?
None of the answers below are helpfull at all
If you want to make money from adsense, get your website.
If you place adsense on your political website, you are undermining your purpose–which is to promote your candidate. If I saw a political ad with adsense, I would think, "He/She is not sincere, just trying to make money.
Political advertising encompasses all forms of advertising pertaining to building support for any and all political campaigns including candidates running for office, ballot measures, political activism, etc.
They come in many forms. The most common form of political advertising that most people are familiar with is television advertising. However with the advent of the World Wide Web, no political campaign will be complete without putting the power of social media, political email advertising and the search engine marketing to work for you.
The Internet, due to its electronic nature and wide-spread use, is a relatively inexpensive and highly effective way to disseminate information. A properly prepared piece posted to the social networks, for instance, can go viral in a matter of minutes bringing hundreds, thousands and perhaps even tens of thousands of people to your site and ultimately to your message.
Political email advertising can achieve essentially the same thing. Using legal and ethical methods many thousands of people can be reached with what amounts to a click of the mouse button.

There are many ways to get the word out about your political campaign and tell potential voters about yourself and what you stand for. These days the Internet plays a pivotal role in politics due to its wide reach and also it is a relatively inexpensive way to reach far and wide in short period of time in some cases.
There are many ways you can use the World Wide Web for advertising political campaigns. Search engine optimization, or SEO as they refer to it in the industry, is one of the primary ways to get the word out.
What Is SEO and How You Can Use It for Advertising Political Campaigns
SEO deals with the so-called organic results in Google, Yahoo and Bing as well as other search engines. These are the pages they display in the main body of the page when the user types in a search query into the search box.
One can never get a page to rank in the organic results by paying money to the company that owns the search engine. The ranking order is determined by a mathematical formula called an algorithm. Just to give you an idea, Google’s search engine algorithm is said to take over 200 different things into account when it comes to picking the results to display on the first page.
While that may sound overwhelming, there a few simple rules of thumb one can follow in order to do well. We will find the keywords the people you are trying to reach are searching on in Google. Next, we go ahead and create content for your website that will address the issue, question or concern reflected in the search query. If you already have such a page, we will optimize it for maximum effect.
Finally, we will promote your web page using links on blogs, social networking sites and the like to make Google notice and pick you over all the other pages out there.
