I won ’ t sugarcoat it . Running for a national office is absolutely terrifying , but if you made it far enough to open this Campaign Corner then I know that you are more than capable . By opening it , you have already shown exceptional interest in the NJCL and initiative - two of the most important qualities in an NJCL officer .
Honestly , I was terrified . I had run for my state office on a whim and a lot of caffeine and had no idea if I could do that on the national scale . But here I am !
Win or not , campaigning for an NJCL office will be one of the most fun , memorable , and possibly anxiety-inducing weeks of your life . As much as I and the other officers try to describe it in this Campaign Corner , I have yet to find anything that truly encompasses the feeling and experience . That week , I talked to so many people , had so many random conversations , and shared countless moments with my fellow candidates .
I can ’ t force you to run and I probably sound a little biased , but I promise if you run you won ’ t regret it . So if you ’ ve even attended one NJCL Convention and a have little desire to give back to my favorite organization , you should keep reading !
Also here ’ s a fun , nerdy tidbit ! The design of this Campaign Corner is meant to emulate the 2018 one because it was the last time we were at Miami !
