Graphic Design for Political CampaignsThank you for taking the time to review samples of my graphic
design work for political campaigns. I have been in business as
Nelson Design since 1992, designing a wide variety of successful
print projects including advertising, magazines, catalogs, exhibits
and collateral.
This digital portfolio contains only a small collection of political
campaign pieces I have designed. I understand the unique
requirements of political design, including clear and impactful
communication, consistent branding of the message, and most
importantly, speedy and accurate turnaround at a reasonable price.
Please feel free to call or email me if you’d like to discuss how I can
contribute to your next campaign project.

Nelson Design 925.275.9700LeeAnn Nelson [email protected]
LogosCandidate and issue logo designs are $300, and include up to three
unique designs and two rounds of revisions to the chosen design.
Turnaround is usually 1-to-2 business days, and final logos are
delivered in both color and black and white, as .eps, .pdf and .jpg files
for ease of use in any media.
I prefer to initially present two logo designs—often with alternate
color combinations on each—and then receive feedback before doing
the third and final design, should it be necessary. Below is a sample
of the way logo options would be presented. Finished logos for actual
campaigns are on the following pages.

Direct Mail& WalkpiecesDirect mail and walkpiece designs range from $150-$500 depending on size,
complexity and number of revisions. Turnaround is usually 1-to-2 business
days, however pieces can often be delivered the same day when necessary
to meet a tight mailing deadline.
The backbone of any successful campaign, printed message pieces need to
be clear and easy to read with consistent branding throughout the course
of the campaign. Most importantly from the designers’ standpoint, they
need to be accurate and
print-ready to avoid any
delays at the printer or
mailing house.

Creighton Understands How the System Works and is Best QualifiedJohn Creighton, an Alameda County District Attorney, and Victoria Kolakowski, an administrative law judge for the Public Utilities Commission, California the top two vote-getters in the June primary, will face off Nov. 2. Kolakowski is mounting a historic candidacy to become the first transgender judge. That she would bring diversity to the bench appears to be the cornerstone of Kolakowski’s campaign. Creighton is backed by about 80 percent of the county judges and is endorsed by Louis Goodman— the candidate who placed third. We endorse John Creighton for Alameda County Superior Court Judge.
Yes on Measure CAlameda’s unique quality of life
comes from its long history as a
family friendly place to live and work.
Our quality of life depends on having
a solid foundation of safety, and
good access to cultural and recreational opportunities.
Measure C is a local half-cent sales tax measure placed on the ballot
unanimously by the Alameda City Council. Our City has pressing needs. Measure
C will generate enough funds for a new aquatics complex, all-weather multi-
purpose athletic field, library improvements, and public safety.
Measure C gives Alameda residents local control. Every penny must be spent
on these projects and independent financial audits are required by law.
We urge a YES vote on Measure C for our kids, libraries, and public safety.

“As your Councilmember,

I can to preserve and enhance
Alameda’s unique quality of life.”
Rob Bonta – Fresh Ideas Educationz Fundamentally change the way California funds our public
education and end the state’s unfair and outdated formula that keeps Alameda the lowest funded school district in the county, as my family and I seek to do as plaintiffs in Robles Wong v. California.
z Create a permanent city office of education to work more closely with and in support of the school district.
z Involve all stakeholders, including the business community, from the very beginning in any new effort to pass a fair and equitable school parcel tax.
Alameda Pointz Require all private development partners
to agree in advance to implement our community’s vision for Alameda Point.
z Set stringent standards in advance to ensure that all private partners working with us at Alameda Point have the financial ability to get the job done.
z Ensure through strong leadership, close oversight, and accountability that our elected city council retains control over implementation of our community’s vision at Alameda Point.
Fiscal Responsibilityz Work in an atmosphere of mutual
trust and respect with labor unions through the good faith bargaining process to secure Alameda’s financial future.
z Achieve fiscal health through a combination of budget cuts and revenue generation resulting from robust business attraction and business retention efforts.
z Save money through a top-to-bottom review of city government, as we did as part of Alameda Hospital’s financial turnaround.

FundraisersFundraiser invitations can range from a complete package of outer
envelope, A7 invitation, A2 remit donation card and return envelope, to a
simple email invitation. Design prices range from $75 to $225.
Regardless of the format, the key element of any invitation is the remit. A
clearly designed and easy-to-complete remit can make thousands of dollars
of difference in the donations returned.
…and the stockings were hung by the chimney with care,
in hopes that campaign donors soon would be there…

THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY ENDORSES
LONI HANCOCK fOR STATE SENATE, 9TH DISTRICT
Sandré Swanson has been an effective representative for our community. In the Assembly, he has been a tireless advocate for the health, safety, and education of our children and a leader in promoting legislation to help working families and secure increased job opportunities.
Sandré Swanson, along with Loni Hancock, was one of just two members of the State Assembly to oppose the Governor’s $500 million cut to health care and human services earlier this year. He is an effective legislator, with a 100% voting record from the Sierra Club, the California Labor Federation, and the California Congress of Seniors.
The Democratic Party proudly endorses Sandré Swanson for Assembly.
Loni Hancock has been a forceful advocate for open government and social justice. She cares about the community and has produced real results at the local, state and federal levels.
In the Assembly, Loni Hancock has an impressive record of delivering on California’s toughest challenges – funding our schools, protecting the environment and achieving universal heath care. She is leading the fight for real campaign finance reform. That’s why the Democratic Party strongly endorses Loni Hancock for Senate.
