LA Unified – the largest school district in the State - needed a $7 billion bond to build facilities to provide an excellent education to all students. We ran the multi-million dollar mail, digital and targeted field campaign to secure a huge win for LA students.
The largest regional park district in the U.S. needed help extending a critical parcel tax funding stream to maintain wildfire protection, urban creeks, water quality, and natural habitats. We ran the campaign (mail, digital and field ) that delivered the big win with 85.6% support on Election Day!
This local fire district faced a massive under-funding problem. Putting our tool box to work with video, direct mail, texting, phone, digital ads and more, we ran the initiative that shed new light on a dark situation and helped pave the way to new funding solutions for essential emergency services.
As the California Gubernatorial recall began to heat up and polling suggested the recall could win, Labor reached out to CliffordMoss for help with a get-out-the-vote strategy designed to make sure progressive, no-on-recall voters would actually cast a ballot. We developed a grasstops, media and field strategy to ensure mid-propensity "no" voters would turn in their ballots before the mid-September election.
Treva Reid was a first-time candidate looking for experienced counsel. We developed her messaging, mail, digital and a robust field campaign (during the pandemic).
In a crowded field of five, with ranked choice voting, Treva won by 20 points!
When the window opened for energizing Hayward volunteer Elisa Marquez to run for public office, she called CliffordMoss. Since then, we’ve helped Elisa win multiple city elections, activating the power of grassroots campaigning to “do the good you want to see in the world.”
Torrance Unified came to us asking for help improving communications and public trust. Our solution: a Strategic Communications Initiative to engage, inform, communicate and transform the TUSD organization into a culture of communicators. It’s a work in progress that’s working!
The City asked for our help educating its community about a ballot measure critically important to the city’s future. Operating strictly in the “information ONLY” lane, we got the job done employing video, online ads and 2-way mail to tell their story factually and transparently.
