I could definitely use some help on this campaign if you are willing

That is all.

There are so many responses, I want to make sure I don't miss anyone. I will be updating this as I find them

I am an experienced filmmaker, and have worked in political ads before (edited commercial for Republican Pres. candidate Buddy Romer).

I am politically agnostic, but would be more than willing to help out a fellow Redditor.

Dr. Ham, are you interested in video for your campaign? If so, lets work together!

A fellow Redditor was awesome enough to start sketching out a website. Would like to get your feedback on the work.

I'm probably going to go with this wordpress template to save time. $35 isn't bad

My most urgent challenge is to get my name out there and collect enough signatures to qualify for a spot on the ballot. I hired a former census worker who has shown himself to be very capable and energetic when it comes to gathering signatures (he started out as a volunteer).

Thanks for all the support, together we might just pull it off.

All decisions in regard to the site are obviously up to Dr. Ham, I'm just curious as to if anyone has committed to helping with design. If there's anyone able, and willing, to help out with anything site-related, you can bring it up and discuss it here.

Thank you for the request for updates, very sorry I've been absent recently. I've been working on

1. Getting signatures.

2. Putting the website in order.

3. Making my first campaign commercial. As a side note, talking to a camera is very different from talking to people (something I like doing).

At the moment, the most pressing issue is signatures. Even with a few volunteers and a paid collector, making the deadline is looking unlikely. I had hoped to raise more funds to hire more signature collectors and will be releasing another few videos talking about policy.

New Mexico primaries are a bit strange in that even if we don't make the Februrary 14 deadline, we can collect into March, but you need more signatures.

I'm looking for someone, or some method, to easily coordinate volunteers who can collect signatures. Any and all thoughts are apprecaited.

Closure would be nice, whichever direction it went in. I'm happy to keep moderating this, but having nothing happen for a month has made it rather disheartening.

Just wondering how the signature collecting is going, and how the website/videos are coming along!
