For PACs and party committees
Five things a committee gets from The Political Group that a single campaign cannot
- 1. Bundling
Bundle your candidates with us and unlock a volume breakpoint no single campaign reaches alone. The whole slate is priced on its combined list, and every race in it pays that rate.
- 2. Control
You pay directly toward voter persuasion you can track yourself, dollar by dollar, and report the in-kind contribution to each candidate cleanly. Every program is itemized per candidate from the first quote.
- 3. The live dashboard
Every bundled candidate gets a live campaign dashboard showing dials, conversations, voter identification and daily momentum as they happen. Not a weekly PDF. Unmatched anywhere.
- 4. The support tracker
Across all your candidates: who is gaining, who is slipping, who needs help. Spend more where it matters and less where it does not, while there is still time to move money.
- 5. HyperPulse
AI polling that reads the voters of any district in hours for a fraction of a traditional poll, and gets sharper as real voter contact calibrates it. With us you can sample real voters.
