Posters and boards can make other JCLers aware of you and you’ re campaign. These materials can have many different things on them depending on what you’ re using them for. For example: A poster can go into detail about your platform if you plan to hang it up around the university or attach it to a bulletin board. A poster can just say“ VOTE FOR TIMMY” if you plan on carrying around( or, even better, forcing people from your State to carry it around) to advertise yourself( and if your name is Timmy.)
How can I make‘ em?
Posters and boards are typically made by hand – no need to make things more complicated. That means it’ s time to bust out the markers, scissors, and construction paper to decorate. If you want to be extra fancy, you can get letter stickers or border trims, though you don’ t need to spend too much time on a single poster. I printed photos of myself and memes my brother made on my posters, but I kept them fairly simple beyond that.

NOTE: A poster or a board can be especially useful for Meet the Candidates as you’ ll have a dedicated table where you can set it up. Since there will be a lot of people to talk to and only one you to do the talking, a poster or board can give people an idea of your key points while they wait.

TIP! Don’ t make your posters too big. Remember that you’ ll have to transport them all the way to convention in a suitcase, and you may have to fold or distort larger posters.
