Analytics is the “secret sauce” of any successful political campaign. It can inform decisions on fundraising advertising, messaging, and canvassing techniques. The data collected by analytics will tell you that your supporters respond well to focus all your energy on those things during the campaign. This allows for more efficient use of resources, which means more time spent campaigning than fundraising or planning ads.

Political campaigns are notoriously difficult to win. Several variables that need to be considered are staggering, and the margin for error is razor-thin. It’s no wonder most campaigning organizations employ a mix of analytics experts and traditional campaign managers.”

“Analytics professionals provide invaluable insight into what voters want and how to reach them through social media or television ads. They also measure success by the conversion rates on email sign-ups and donations and provide data on voter turnout at campaign events.” “Without analytics in their arsenal, political campaigners would be flying blind – unsure if they’re winning or losing the battle.”

Future of Political Campaign Analytics

Political parties will obtain data on behalf of every voter, allowing them to know a good deal about the individual and their interests and preferences. Parties, Campaigns, and candidates will use this information to “nudge” voters to the polls. There’s a power to this. Some worry it may be abused.

Political campaigns will be very different. Campaigns will be costly, and the amount of information being fed to voters will be very high. Therefore, it will become increasingly important to utilize accurate, big data analytics to inform strategies, tactics, and messaging to effectively reach, persuade, and turn out voters.

Politicians and candidates will work alongside professional services firms specializing in big data and data analytics. These firms will be a critical part of the candidate’s campaign team. Individuals on the campaign team will lean on the firm’s expertise to turn the massive amounts of data into fresh insights and analytics, helping the team gain critical insights essential to staying on target and message with their constituents.

Organizations will increasingly be able to assess the effectiveness of political activity such as speeches, yard sign placement, media advertising, and fundraising on organizations’ decision-making practices and mobilization success.

Campaigns will be run more efficiently because of better analytics to guide decisions.

Campaign analytics tools will have automated polls, asking each voter daily what they think about the issues. They will have continual dial testing of the advertisements, and the pollsters will poll the voters in real time instead of once every month or so. They will be able to target messages relevant to specific geographic areas. The networks will test their political advertising for three or four months before releasing it.

Politicians and their campaign managers will use large data sets that contain all the media platforms, including web-based content, social media, mass media, and television. Analyzing this data will help them create media plans and messages to influence the behavior of voters. Dozens of political campaigns will eventually use professionals with media analytics specialties. Data-driven media analytics work may change how candidates are elected and governed and citizens’ lives.

Political campaigns will use predictive analytics to understand voters’ political behavior patterns and customize messages to persuade voters with advertisements and issue positions that closely match those voters’ belief systems.

Political Candidates and their campaigns will be able to compile massive amounts of data about their supporters and gain insights into their wants and needs. The information will help the candidates and their campaigns aim with incredible precision at the voters most receptive to their messages and platforms.

The technology will help political campaigns to be more efficient and better strategize. Political campaigns can apply advanced mathematical modeling, artificial intelligence, and data mining.

Political campaigns will gather and mine more information than ever before. They will read volumes of data to analyze the candidate’s and issues’ viability. Movements will decide what topics to address at what times, considering how people respond to the campaign’s ideas.

Political campaigns will emphasize social media, analysis of that data, and use of data analytics.

Politicians will have vast information on where to focus their campaign efforts, where the voters are, how much money they make, and who they vote for.

Political campaigns will have a lot of data at their disposal. Data miners and analysts must work together to ensure campaigns have enough information to deliver the right message to the relevant voters. Because of this need for information, data mining will become an increasingly important political campaign activity.

Political campaigns will use digital tactics, like website design and social media, to identify and activate supporters. And by automatically picking up voters’ preferences and personality traits, they will use that data to tailor the specific messages and political arguments presented to each voter. This tactic is called “microtargeting.”

The winning or losing of Elections depends on algorithms. These algorithms will predict voter behavior and, more precisely, target a candidate’s message based on voter needs and want, issues, geographic factors, and more granular information such as a consumer’s spending habits.

Political campaigns will conduct “massive” amounts of research and data mining on voters to win elections. They will also try to use many digital technologies to target voters.

Political campaigns will be increasingly data-driven. The drives will use information technology not only for storing, analyzing, and retrieving data but also for improving their get-out-the-vote and voter identification programs and communication with and soliciting voters.

Increasingly, data will be the basic level for all campaigns, coupled with supercomputers and the ability to run predictive models. The democratization of data will change politics. And it will also have a substantial effect on our culture and the way we see ourselves.

Big Data technology in politics will allow campaigns to collect, distribute, and target political messages to specific voters more quickly. This will lead to ever-increasing amounts of information and faster interactions with voters. The vast amounts of new data will give campaigns unprecedented insight into the political minds of citizens, candidates, and voters.

Political campaigns rely on cloud-based computing platforms to efficiently manage communications, analyze data, leverage insights, and mobilize candidates or causes.

Conclusion

A political campaign’s success relies on the right strategy and tactics. According to Campaign Monitor, one of these is analytics, or “the secret sauce of data-driven campaigns.” The company shared insights into how this works in an article published last year.

With a wealth of information about voters embedded in their databases, they can make strategic decisions based on what motivates them to vote for you rather than your opponents.
