Video

There are multiple options for including video. Ask your representative for more information about this new feature.

The Candidate Rides Again: This video is from an early campaign that used the predecessor of the current EO system.
Man Talks: This example illustrates the focused, hard-hitting style characteristic of campaign sites on other platforms; we can help you do better.

Need instant gratification?

For immediate, quick and dirty results, for example reporting from a campaign event, simply

make a selfie-video in the role of a reporter or commentator (max. 1 minute approx.)
open the site editor
create a video container on any page
add title and companion text
upload the video
save the container
(preview and revise as needed)

(We'd like to let you demo this here, but we don't know what environment you are using.)

Unbiased observer reports

If your goal is to win over hesitant voters, such a candid comment from the field may not be the best style for your site.

Longer videos naturally require additional writing, preparation and storage. They can also be embedded from third-party sources like YouTube, etc., using easily learned copy and paste techniques.

Podcasting

Podcasts are series of short online audio-video programs. Users can download episodes to their computer or MP3 player and listen to your message off line.

You can support multiple podcasts. For example you might have a main campaign podcast and also series by regular contributors.

Election Options' Podcast Manager keeps track of all the details and maintains your audio and video files. Just prepare your content and add series or episodes at will.

Content remains available throughout the campaign and for a mutually agreed period thereafter. Storage and bandwidth charges may apply.

This feature is new in 2026, and we're developing support information. Ask your EO designer for more details.
