"The winning part, many forget or refuse to acknowledge, should start way before favorable opinion polls and hefty campaign contributions come trickling in; the winning is to be found in the clear language and agreement on what the candidate and the voter can work on together and be held accountable for later on."

While the article is about winning the presidency (by 'losing'), it delivers a strong, unequivocal message to those seeking local elective posts who wanted to win, or ought to win, fair and square: lay down your program of (local) government to voters so they can appraise it, buy it, vote for you, and make you accountable for the program later on.

Read and share.

'Winning is about losing the accustomed comfort of being praised all the time for brilliance, composure, elegance, humility, simplicity, bravery, and preparedness in exchange for taking all the manure for being slow but tenacious in sticking to what is right and good for everyone.'
