ive actually consulted on large campaigns in a dozen states.

No s***? For real? Is that your profession? Was this actual consultation for pay? Inquiring minds want to know. Smiley

Never volunteered, although I did edit a candidate's wikipedia page earlier this year in exchange for renumeration from a different candidate's campaign.

Well, that's of dubious legality, but unquestionable s*** baggery.
It's par for the course in politics.

In your world perhaps.

Though In fairness, I should have said it was a dubious illegality, because upon further reflection I doubt it is illegal. Though still s*****.

The world that you mentioned as "my world" in your next post is the consulting world. The firm I interned for did a lot of digital stuff (promoting tweets, etc) involving social media. I found it rather tedious and preferred to document and verify the ballot petitions that their various clients sent them.

I don't want to name my consultant's name, but he did some big league stuff in one very important and historic election. He's mentioned in several books I have (even if there is only one or two references in the index section Tongue) as well, which gives me something trivial to brag about.

No(not that abnormal for a sixteen years old).

My father has been a congressional campaign manager and statewide campaign manager, though. The former one is how he met my mother.

Given your father's past work, I'm surprised you weren't volunteered, unless he quit campaign work before you were born. My children were parade volunteers for campaigns even before they were in school.
