The job itself, as far as city council, obviously will take some time but it won't be as time consuming as most elected positions. Having some flexibility with your job will be helpful if you are elected because there will be things during the day that you may be called on to do. For the campaign, you can expect a steady increase in time commitment as you get closer to election day. Most of this time will be spent fundraising. If you are going in with a party then they will have an infrastructure that will assist you. Either way, though, you will likely have to take off from work for the whole of October to really do it right. This is just based on my knowledge of city council races here in my city.
Costs will differ and depend on a large number of things. This is, again, where having a party infrastructure can help out.
Thanks !
Even though the Libertarian Party is not recognized in Ohio, they would probably still guide me through things.
The regional coordinator for the party is also a board member of The Feldman Foundation, so I can get support through them as well.
I only work Friday-Sunday, so having 4 days off every week will afford me ample time.
I also have 4 weeks of vacation left, just in case.
My campaigning should fair well, as I am friends with the majority of business owners, my wife working at the radio station, and the fact that I've always socialized with everyone in my town.
Also, having the support of a current, popular council member probably won't hurt.
I will have to start grilling him and the other member I know for information.
