Political Coordinator

Political Coordinator 

The Political Department sits at the heart of our campaign’s outreach and visibility strategy. We are responsible for building meaningful relationships with elected officials, advocacy organizations, community groups, and grassroots leaders across Georgia. Our mission is to connect the values of this campaign to the people and institutions driving change in every corner of the state.

We work to ensure that Senator Ossoff’s message is present, even when he cannot be, by activating trusted surrogates, engaging coalition partners, elevating community voices, and creating opportunities for real connection. Whether we are casting a campaign commercial, staffing a local parade, showing support at a community event, or organizing a round table with community leaders, the Political Department ensures the campaign is seen, heard, and trusted where it matters most.

We are relationship builders, messengers, and organizers committed to helping this campaign meet the moment with integrity, reach, and impact.
