Using Social Media

Many candidates are active on Facebook, Twitter and other forms of social media, and their campaigns monitor these sites closely to gauge what people are saying. Here are some examples of how you can use the questions in this newsletter to engage with candidates on social media.

• Post a question on a candidate’s Facebook wall.
• Tweet a question to a candidate. We’ve included a Tweet-able version of each of the questions in this newsletter that you could send.

As you can see, there are many different ways that you can use these questions to interact with candidates this year. When you do, you will learn about them but, even more importantly, they will learn about you and what you want them to be thinking about and doing if they are elected.

At the bottom of each of the questions for candidates in the January/February newsletter, you'll see a link to a Tweet-able version of each question for the candidates.
