A Research Study: Unsuccessful Political Candidates

Thank you for your interest in the original research study.  This research is conducted with our non-partisan research partner Meer Research, and the research explores the opinions of candidates that were NOT successful in running for elected office. These are people that have been in the arena and their experiences are worthy of consideration.

In addition, 2/3 of the candidates studied tell us they are likely to run again – this time with lessons learned.

We consider this to be exploratory research, and we are especially interested in your feedback and suggested additional veins of research.

After completion of the form below, you will receive an email with a link to download the form and an email to send your feedback and suggestions.

Thank you.
