Justin Kenel, Director of Engineering, highlights: “Local races are so important—in PA we kept the state house blue. I loved working to elect Nikki Rivera (https://lnkd.in/e_Zb3hKa) to her first term as a state rep. After 30 years of teaching in public school, I'm excited to have her fighting for public education in Harrisburg.” This year, Justin enjoyed greeting voters at the polls in Lancaster, PA and has joined local organizing efforts and advocacy work for Democrats there. A huge thanks to Justin for his commitment and dedication to supporting local elections!?

Amanda Shepherd, our Media Planning Manager, emphasizes: “While the top-of-ticket outcome wasn't what we hoped for, we're proud to have supported more candidates and causes than ever, securing key down-ballot wins nationwide. These victories are even more significant given the presidential results, positioning us strongly to communicate with constituents about the importance of voting and advocacy in the years to come.” At DSPolitical, we are focused on our mission to empower our clients and engage voters to create meaningful change.?

Deniece Joseph, our Senior Client Services Associate, points out: “It’s important to look ahead; there are always lessons to be learned. Instead of hyper-focusing on what went wrong, we must look forward as there is still work to be done. We have four years to get it right and two years until voters across the country head back to the ballot box to decide the makeup of the 120th Congress.” DSPolitical remains dedicated to uplifting progressive voices and fostering impactful change.

As we look back on this election cycle, we at DSPolitical want to take a moment to recognize the incredible work done by our clients, partners, and community members. Despite the challenges and outcomes, one thing remains clear: your dedication to a better future for our democracy is unwavering. Progress is not achieved in a single moment—it’s a continuous journey. Together, let’s focus on the work ahead and build a more equitable future for everyone.

Sean Solis, our Director of Accounts, reminds us: “Despite the results of this year’s elections, we are in a unique position to hold the incoming Congress and administration accountable. Our work means making sure that the consequences of elections are visible to everyone, and that Democrats and progressives have a way forward to speak directly to voters’ concerns.” At DSPolitical, we're more determined than ever to help our clients enact meaningful change.

The 2024 presidential election results weren’t what we hoped for, but the journey toward progress is far from over. MaryEllen Veliz, Political Sales Team Lead, reminds us: “Although this election didn't go our way at the top of the ticket, electing a new class of Democratic U.S. Senators comprising half women and two-thirds people of color is a huge win for ensuring that diverse communities are represented in the U.S. Capitol.” DSPolitical’s commitment to amplifying progressive voices and driving meaningful change continues. Together, let’s keep pushing forward.

Happy Election Day! A huge shoutout to our clients, partners, and our amazing DSPolitical team for their incredible dedication and hard work this election season to build a better future for our country and communities. In the past week alone, we delivered nearly 1 BILLION impressions supporting around 2,000 Democratic candidates and causes. And yesterday was the busiest media day in our company’s history, with over 400 CTV impressions served every second. Now let’s make history.

Every vote counts ???! We love seeing our DSPolitical team getting out to vote and showing off their “I Voted” stickers.?
