TikTok has emerged as one of the top-notch social media platforms in recent years due to the availability of short clips present on them.

For instance, in South Asia only, nearly 200 million people used TikTok in 2020, which has made it one of the most sought out platforms in the region.

However, the prevalence of TikTok has paved the way for fake news, especially videos and audio messages in the political arena that have become increasingly difficult to filter in the sea of information out there.

Even though the platform launched a

With the 2022 midterm elections of America on their way, and candidates continuing amassing massive donations, there should be a realization that credit cards, debit cards, and old-fashioned paper checks are becoming the forgotten donation methods.

More politicians than ever are accepting cryptocurrency donations, thus trying to get donations through untapped fronts, which were not possible in earlier election cycles.

Be it convenience, privacy, or avoiding taxes, getting donations of cryptocurrencies is a reasonable approach as it helps politicians outplay their competitors easily.

And as of now, political donations in the form of

Many elections in Latin America have resulted in the collapse of moderate, centrist ideology as people seem more inclined to either extreme in these countries.

This stands true for Chile, Peru, and Brazil, where centrist politicians failed to make a mark in the latest elections.

However, the trends seem to be broken in the upcoming Colombia elections, as the victory for centrists seems imminent in the May 2022 elections.

The approach of Colombia’s incumbent President Iván Duque in tackling the popular protests makes him highly unpopular among the masses as he

Field activity management is a process to control all of the field operations that are happening outside the office environment of the political campaign.

In order to see these moving parts of the political campaign, people who are responsible for these activities have to oversee many operations, including data collection, political surveys, door-to-door canvassing, and campaign chapter management, which many political campaigns do not entertain.

Engaging casual supporters into actionable individuals is one of the most problematic parts of any political campaign.

Many voters may get involved in your campaign, but fail to contribute as a volunteer or donor to the political campaign, increasing tensions of political campaigns.

While these people may love your campaign, they are only interested in voting for it and not promoting your bid further.

This is where the role of the ladder of engagement comes in, as not all people are equally engaged in your campaign. However, you can increase their level of

When you are at the starting point of your political career, you may wonder where to start your election campaign and which set of voters you should start targeting initially.

Even in a door-to-door campaign, you have to pick at least one door to start with. However, many aspiring politicians struggle to find that one door, which can jeopardize their campaigning efforts even before the start of the campaign.

So in any neighborhood, start with the following strategy.

The use of radio has undoubtedly diminished over the years, especially after the onset of social media platforms.

Even electronic media has lost its relevance in front of social media, let alone radio.

This practice has encouraged many politicians to leave radio advertisements completely, which has created a significant gap to tap into the field.

So, politicians who invest in radio advertisements during election cycles are likely to reach untapped voters, which can easily turn the fate of their elections.

Nearly 244  million Americans use radio to consume content; reaching out to these voters

Politicians try to navigate unfamiliar waters many times to tap opportunities that could not be seen otherwise.

At a time when former US President Donald Trump was getting an unimaginable amount of donations from social media despite getting banned from Facebook and Twitter, Joe Biden has found a trick to catch up before the 2022 midterm elections.

Recently the US Senate approved a slate of US ambassadors for different countries, and all of them got confirmation due to the Democratic majority in the Senate.

Chileans have finally reversed voting for right-wing politicians as they elected the leftist lawmaker Gabriel Boric as their new president.

The youngest president-elect in the history of the country, Boric has the opportunity to set high standards in a country that is currently gasping for a new constitution.

Since former President Salvador Allende’s departure, who committed suicide in a 1973 military coup in the country, Boric is expected to be the most liberal president of the country.

It gives liberal politicians of the country breathing space to survive in a country that was

The advancement in science and technology is also playing its role in the political arena as more and more politicians use technology to reach voters.

Online gaming, or what is also termed the virtual world, has gained the attention of politicians as they are using the games for their political campaign in an effort to traverse an uncharted frontier to reach voters, mostly youngsters who take an interest in such things.

The role of online gaming in political campaigns is still emerging. While it is still early to estimate its influence on
