On this week’s episode of the Pulse Pod, Chris and Brent discuss the brand new DIT subscription service. This exciting tool developed by Cygnal’s data science team is designed to help campaigns at every level understand their districts, their voters, and their issues better, providing consistent real time data concerning the most important topics among a certain community. The District Issue Tracker is the best way to get a snapshot of what’s going on in a legislative or congressional district without spending thousands of dollars in polls.

Our guest this week on the Cygnal Pulse Pod (Ep. 28) is Tim Murtaugh. Tim’s career encompasses serving as Communications Director for the most-watched political campaign in world history – the Trump 2020 campaign – plus, a body of impressive work on statewide campaigns, congressional races, and in senior leadership positions at national political committees. He has overseen public relations strategies in states from Hawaii to Maine and has led successful targeted advocacy efforts for individuals, organizations, and legislative proposals using all available avenues: publications, press events/releases, media appearances, paid television, radio advertisements, social media, direct mail, and internet videos. In short, if there is a message to be delivered to an audience, he knows how to craft it, send it, and direct it.
