“A campaign store is a very significant piece of a modern political campaign,” said Dale Emmons, president of the American Association of Political Consultants.
All the Presidential candidates of the 2016 elections now have their own campaign stores! Supporters can buy endless swag that includes custom t-shirts, mugs, hats, bumper stickers, pillows, and a lot more. By buying these products, you aren’t just making yourself a walking promotion, you’re making a donation. These promotional products also helps candidates learn more about their fan base. Depending on what products you choose to purchase, whether it’s baby clothes or phone cases, the campaign leaders can be educated on the type of person you are. If you have a newborn baby, what kind of phone you use, if you’re a coffee drinker or not, etc.
Moral of the story? Swag is very important for these presidential candidates. Here is a look at some popular swag that has been made in support of the 2016 candidates.
