How to win an election

I must confess, I loved as a blogger the most always local elections. Yes, they're not so much in terms of the policy as a State and federal election where can I feed my inner wonk, but everyone loves a good train wreck. And candidates for the election of the city tend to train to run wrecks. Are the place where the ankle crazy biters, and spinner trying her hand a political eccentric. But since this is the holiday season, I feel like you are generous, so I "explain How to win an election" is exactly in this city. This is a total freebie people. And I give here don't worry, not the way of the nuclear launch codes. I'm just saying what has worked to win campaigns.
