3. These are great questions to start getting it organized.

I haven’t been that involved with generating communications but have you considered reaching out to the NM Dem party HQ? Here’s their contact list, including the phone number of their Communications Director: https://nmdemocrats.org/our-party/dpnm-staff/

Starting there might give you some answers, if not additional on the ground support, if they can help. Consider asking them outright for assistance, not just referring you to other websites to do your own research; reaching out to Executive Director would likely be better than the Communications Dir for that purpose, so you might want to start there. If you can’t get extra help from them in terms of both shoring up your website and Facebook page, they might have a list of folks in your area who would be willing to volunteer, or they might have student interns in the wings who they could loan you to help you get things off the ground. I’d also ask her the best way to shake off the old FB admins, if they won’t support you.

You could also reach out within your county Dem party to ask if anyone knows of anyone who would have the ability and energy help with those short term specific projects, that it could make a substantial difference in the outcome for your county. This is an all-hands-on-deck moment, and even mature high schoolers would be able to help you, including managing FB and Twitter.

You are making a difference, exactly what we need, koepeli
Congrats and good luck!
