Note to candidates filing in the 7–14 March window
Filing for statewide or legislative district office before 1700 on Monday, 14 March?
Whether you’re a Republican, Democrat, Libertarian, or another political persuasion, we’d like to hear from you by email.
Here’s what bloggers and mainstream media reporters like to find in your press packet:
- Your official mug shot, as long as it’s not more than two years old.
- Links to video clips.
- Your email address and telephone number.
- The URL of your campaign’s website (which should be fully built before you file).
- Facebook and Twitter URLs.
- Your platform. If your platform is missing, Flathead Memo assumes you are in 100 percent agreement with the platform of your political party, but are afraid to take a public position on any issue.
Remember, everything is on the record.
And, regardless of your party or proposals, thanks for standing for election.
