[Lnc-business] Brandon Phinney

[John Phillips]

Further update on this.  I spent some time talking to Brandon this 
morning, a bit hungover, but a lot more together than I was at 12 am the 
night before.

   I got his rack card/door knocker printing issues solved for him (I 
think, I got a pro to give him a hand, and have offered to pay for that 
help personally if there is a charge).

   My team and I have found him some volunteers to help him write a 
script for calls and door knockers (if he/we can find him some on the 
ground volunteers).

   We have found him a couple volunteers to phone bank for him and are 
working on putting together a complete team for this.

He does have his voter lists, I had received incorrect information from 
somewhere else that he did not, and it was a monetary issue.  Apparently 
just a confusion about who had it or not.

He is 90% done with his application for candidate support, but 
apparently there is a video requirement?  He is having trouble with 
time/money/help on that portion.  As he is an incumbent that spoke to us 
in NOLA, do we REALLY need a video?

He is not near his state mandated limit, again the person who reported 
that to me was incorrect, same issue basically.

Brandon is on military orders this week til Friday, I gave him a pep 
talk, encouraged him to take a day or two when he got back and recharge 
with some family time then get back to it.

I have made some outreach to people on the ground in the area. Results 
have not been promising.  Maybe when the regional rep situation gets 
resolved he will know more people to contact, I did have some offers 
from people to go up and help door knock if they can get bus fare money 
or something, which I will pass on to him when he gets back.

I have spread his fundraising link very liberally over FB.  I do not 
have the same reach on the other platforms.   I see that the raffle 
thing was an issue for posting on the national FB page, do we have a 
similar issue with sharing candidate donation links?  Not familiar with 
all the legal ins and outs of that, but I know we can all share it from 
our personal pages at least.  Here is the link

www.phinneynh.com/donate <http://www.phinneynh.com/donate>

I obviously agree with Brent, I think this is an important election for us nationally,
  along with Ebke's.  Not knowing the complete process for us and what ways there are to smooth that
process limits my suggestions to what we can work on other than asking for help and ideas.
