Campaign website essentials
What does a municipal candidate need on a website?
A useful municipal campaign website identifies the candidate, office and community; explains their background and local priorities; and makes contact, volunteering and campaign events easy to find. A trustee campaign should clearly identify its school board and electoral area. PoliticalWin brings those pages and forms together in a site your team can update.
A clear local presence
A practical starting point for your local campaign.
You bring the photos, priorities and local knowledge. PoliticalWin provides structured sections and guided fields to help you put them online.
Find your starting design01 · INTRODUCTION
A familiar name, a clear introduction
An About page can connect your community involvement, professional experience and reasons for running. Use your own photographs and language that sounds like you.
02 · PRIORITIES
Local issues people can find again
Create a page for each priority and link to it from your main overview. Residents can return to the detail after hearing you speak or reading a campaign handout.
03 · PARTICIPATION
Forms without a mandatory postal code
Select Canada and the appropriate province or territory. Public postal codes are optional, and your campaign can switch postal collection off completely.
04 · UPDATES
A current place to check in
Share events, news and campaign photographs. Link voting information to your municipal clerk or the relevant election authority so residents can check the official details.
Made for the day-to-day
Turn an introduction at the door into a next step online.
Your website can continue the conversation after a community meeting, a leaflet or a quick introduction. Make the destination easy to remember and the next action obvious.
Make the local connection
Use your name, municipality and office prominently. Add your ward or electoral area where it applies, and explain the experience that connects you to the community.
Give each priority room
Publish a short overview with links to fuller issue pages. Keep council priorities and school-board responsibilities distinct so visitors can understand the office you seek.
Make involvement straightforward
Offer clear contact and volunteer forms. Publish upcoming events and keep your campaign contact details current as your volunteer team grows.
From first draft to public site
Start with a small, useful website.
You do not need every campaign document finished before planning your site. Prepare the essentials, then expand your content through the dashboard.
Gather your basics
Have your candidate name, office, municipality or school board, campaign email and a photo you have permission to use ready.
Choose a design and add your content
Preview the templates, select Canada during signup and use guided fields for your introduction, priorities and contact details.
Review the public experience
Check spelling, mobile layout and every link. Choose whether to collect postal codes, and have your team review its privacy and authorization wording.
Share one memorable address
Connect a domain you control, or use your PoliticalWin campaign address. Put the same website address on your campaign materials and social profiles.

Before you start
Questions from Canadian campaigns
Clear answers about the website, the workflow and what your campaign should review.
Can I use PoliticalWin for a school-board trustee campaign?
Yes. The candidate profile, issue pages, events and forms can be used for a trustee campaign. Identify the school board and the relevant electoral area clearly, and use the election guidance that applies to that board and jurisdiction.
Do supporters have to enter a postal code?
No. When Canada is selected, the field uses Canadian postal-code terminology and accepts the Canadian format when supplied. It is optional. You can also turn off postal collection in Campaign Profile so the field does not appear on public forms.
Can I connect a .ca campaign domain?
Yes, you can connect a domain you control using the custom-domain setup. You register or renew the domain separately. A .ca registrant must meet CIRA's Canadian Presence Requirements; owning a .ca address does not establish where the website's data is hosted.
Do I need a designer to update the site?
You can use the dashboard's guided fields to update campaign content, images, events and news. The site uses structured templates, so you do not need to arrange every element with a drag-and-drop editor.
Can I launch an English and French website?
PoliticalWin currently offers English, Spanish and English/Spanish websites. Native English/French bilingual publishing is not currently supported. If French is essential to your campaign, confirm your requirements with support before choosing a plan.
Does the website replace municipal election guidance?
No. Election dates, candidate requirements, advertising authorization and campaign-finance rules depend on the jurisdiction and office. Use the current guidance from your municipal clerk or relevant election authority, and have your campaign review the content before publishing.
