Despite the Hype, Most Candidates Do Not Have Blogs

ElectionMall Technologies' Product, Election Blogger, is Software that Enables Candidates to Quickly Create and Run Their Own Official Campaign 'Blog'

WASHINGTON, D.C. - September 14, 2004 /Send2Press Newswire/ -- Making their presence known at the Democratic National Convention in Boston this past July, blogs and bloggers are the latest topics of conversation in politics. Political junkies have created their own blogging subculture through which they get their news and express their concerns. Political blogs gained attention early this election year during the Democratic caucuses and primaries. The majority of the hopefuls for the Democratic presidential nomination had campaign blogs, most notably former Vermont governor Howard Dean. Currently both President George W. Bush and Democratic candidate John Kerry have campaign blogs. "Blog" is a slang term for "web log" or a journal posted on the Internet.

Blogs are currently being incorporated into the web strategies of many high profile candidates. However, most candidates are slow to use blogs. A study by ElectionMall Technologies found that out of 132 candidates currently running for U.S. Senate and gubernatorial seats this election year, only 15 of those candidates have running blogs. Twelve of those candidates are Democrats.

"Blogs are the most effective way for candidates to reach out to voters," commented campaign technology expert Ravi Singh, CEO of ElectionMall Technologies. "Most campaign websites are not interactive, meaning they are talking at voters instead of listening to them. Blogs show constituents that the candidate is interested in their concerns."

ElectionMall Technologies' product, Election Blogger, is software that enables candidates to quickly create and run their own official campaign blog.

"Our product, Election Blogger, enables candidates down to the most local level the ability to set up and maintain their own campaign blogs," explained Singh. "They can have blogs that look as professional as those run by the current presidential candidates. This software membership solution will allow candidates to get their campaigns up to speed."

Singh, an expert in online campaigns, was recently named one of the "Five new powerbrokers whose sites and bytes may well influence how you cast your ballot come November."

ElectionMall Technologies is also a member of the European Association of Political Consultants (EAPC) and the International Association of Political Consultants (IAPC).
