The Politics of Being Local

Bradley TuskI couldn’t help thinking that this Presidential Election is shaping up to be a grassroots contest. Here in Gowanus, the contest is decided already as New York is decidedly going blue as it always does, but across the country, public affairs consultants like Brian Grunson of Munro and Forster, Bradley Tusk of Tusk Strategies, and Phil Murphy of Catalyst Public Affairs are busy shaping the race on a local level, especially in battleground states.

The National race is so tight, but these types of consultants must be seeing that what most people care about are jobs and a sense of economic growth. Consultants like Bradley Tusk who have spent time in politics (Tusk has worked with Mayor Bloomberg) should have a unique insight to the power of local politics.

At the end the end of the day if you have no turnout, no matter your National numbers you will not win.
