This composite image served as the centerspread of an 11 x 17 mailer, and was used on palmcards and social media posts. Judge Margarita won a landslide re-election, beating both opponents by over 30 points each.

11 x 6 Postcard, Democratic Primary for New York City Council. This mailing ratified Bobby Carroll as the progressive candidate, and he won with 90% of the vote in his first campaign for public office.
Democrat Richard Montelione had a long record of providing pro bono legal work, and this mailer told that story. He defeated the county organization candidate in a stunning upset.

My own 4-inch round Photography business card and logo.

A political argument is more powerful when it uses references to popular culture.
We previously mailed a piece that parodied the opposition candidate’s material by replacing her with a posed puppet in all the photos. It was so well received that we sent a followup mailer to voters, which unfolded to become this 11 x 17 poster. Seeing it appear in so many voters’ windows confirmed its appeal. Murtagh’s landslide victory confirmed its impact.
This simple black & white postcard reminded voters that the opponent’s main political benefactor was convicted of election fraud and drug dealing. 
Voters are accustomed to hearing politicians talk. And talk. And talk. Photoshop enabled us to focus on the reason for one senator’s silence.
Local political party organizations often use smoke, mirrors and the aura of inevitability to keep people in line. I composited the opposition candidate’s headshot with a 1960s Politburo portrait of Leonid Brezhnev. One voter looked at this mailer and told our candidate, “Now I know what this race is all about.”
Where do I start? This guy actually ran for City Council while he was out on bail for sexual assault, after a prior stint in jail for grand larceny while impersonating a police officer. We used his police mug shot for this poster. He ended up getting just 3% of the vote.
This poster burnished the Governor’s image as the man whom Emperor Palpatine depended on.
