Scotty Marlowe took a deep breath. He had just departed with Singh, feeling like the meeting had been rushed. But it was no issue, the man was a trusted friend and perhaps the beginning of a friendship that could overcome the obvious issue of distance. Still, he could hardly focus on such a trivial matter. He had been given a major task, to essentially whip up the social media network he possessed and weaponize it in Connecticut. it would be no easy feat and it would require a firestorm, but that was why he had brought dozens of aides. Already, communications were being made with offices of the Singh Campaign, as well as some from general community organizations that had openly supported the Ambassador. Now, let us create a media blitzkrieg thought Scotty.
There was much to do and already Emilio had sought to organize the entirety of it. A photoshoot had been a quick and impromptu action they had taken with the Ambassador in the few spare moments as he had dropped the pair off. After sending them to an editor, they quickly prepared to post on Instagram and Facebook, quickly depositing money to sponsor the posts to appear in the feeds of thousands and as recommended, focused on people in the state. It would be a major one, so the caption was quickly conceived and revised before Scotty made the post himself. Already it would help reach many and make the light endorsement from before much more solidified now.

Sadan Singh is a man I have been honored to get to meet and truly get to know. And after meeting him, and hearing what he had to say before I even flew out here to meet him, it is clear that he is a man of principle and character. Those principles being advancing progressive values, focusing on offering universal Preschool, renewing our promise to our veterans and service men and women, and reforming healthcare to make it affordable and effective for all Americans. It is clear to me that he stands for Connecticut's families and I implore all those who seek instrumental change to vote for him, no matter party affiliation. Because character and principle don't come from what letter is next to your name, they come from the people you hold dear in your heart. And Sadan holds Connecticut's families there. I am proud to extend a strong and resounding endorsement for this family man.
With the post quickly rising in likes and impressions, they turned to the social media ad, one that would go onto Instagram's story feature as well as Twitter and as regular ads through Youtube and other social media. Scotty had made sure the purchases were ready to go, using a few favors and extra funds to make sure they were focused on Connecticut. They would then translate them into Spanish, though Scotty made sure to get a voice over. While he spoke some broken Spanish, it was not his forte. Emma could have done it far better but she was alas not there. They set up filming in various spots in Hartford and with volunteers as well as general excited bystanders turned Marlowe fans, they completed it rather quickly. It soon began to air, set to go from the day before up through Election Night.

Scotty walks out of a local bakery carrying some bread, holding open the door for a family to walk by.
Hello Connecticut, I'm Scotty Marlowe. I've been stunned by this state's kindness and hospitality...truly focused on helping their fellow neighbor.
He keeps walking, as the camera shows volunteers collecting food and passing out items through a window of the adjacent building.
This is a state, at its best, working hard to provide for those most in need. To offer a helping hand, a message of hope to those who need hope the most.
He passes by three families, smiling at each, shaking some of their hands and waving at the children.
This a state of families, families of all different kinds, all accepted here. These are families hoping to be well off, hoping to provide the best for their children, and willing to give back too.
He walks by an open area, offering the bread to a volunteer, as the sign behind him shows American flags and a canned food drive.
So let's start giving back by championing opportunity for those who have this country so much, by securing them opportunity and jobs, by ending veteran homelessness.
He walks past kids playing in a playground near a school, as he offers high-fives and smiles at them, with teachers nodding along.
And let's make sure our children get the best foundational experience by guaranteeing universal preschool for all families and supporting our teachers just as equally so they can get the job done.
He keeps walking, now entering a crowded health fair as people enter, with signs showing female health exams offered and opioid resources being featured primarily.
Lastly, let's work towards giving everyone the chance to be healthy, securing them the right to seek the medicines and treatments they need to stay alive. And combating the opioid epidemic in new, innovative ways to truly make a difference.
With a fairly large crowd of Singh campaign volunteers and excited bystanders and fans, Scotty walks onto a platform in a park, with cheering.
I am not alone in advocating for this progressive vision of change and strength. Thousands across this state have joined together to help advance these important reforms, to help this state of families give back in a new way, in a way spurred by innovation and solidarity with people of all kinds, from veterans to children, from those stuck by illness to those working hard to build this state. We must stand together on Election Day to make sure these values of Connecticut are represented accurately, and no candidate but Sadan Singh can do that. I along with thousands of families stand by a family man and progressive advocate Sadan Singh, will you make the same bold choice?
With the advertisement online, Scotty quickly prepared for Election Night. He canvassed with dozens of volunteers and with his aides, going up to houses across Hartford and then Bridgeport, knocking on doors and offering to take pictures with them, though first reminding them to vote for Singh. Emilio had collected a number of addresses from the Singh team on swing areas, with high areas of Democrats. He focused on suburban neighborhoods, bringing quite a delight to several women. But they soon moved to other neighborhoods, such as poorer ones and those of Hispanics, exciting them just as much. His enthusiasm and jokes proved effective in rallying them, smooth talking them and consistently providing points to vote at all and then vote for Singh.
While a rally was hardly possible, he went to a couple meetings of college political groups as well as just roaming the campuses, speaking to the typically excited and stunned college students. He implored them to vote, offering similar pamphlets and to take pictures. His team back in Hartford quickly acted to compile these pictures and posted them on Twitter, offering them as examples of Scotty's 'newfound Nutmegger friends' who would be voting for the best man for the job. It was creating the attention that was intended and as the day began to end, Scotty prepared for the similar canvassing early tomorrow, to make sure people actually did go vote.
Scotty Marlowe @BeamMeUpScotty Sadan Singh is the best choice for Connecticut, for he is the only one who has focused on a message of advocating for the families of this state. And he means all families. Families of veterans who seek new opportunities and jobs when the established government services have left them forsaken. Families with children who seek a universal and foundational preschool education and sufficient resources for teachers. Families of the ill who seek affordable healthcare reform and ways to place essential, life-saving care in reach for all.  |
Scotty Marlowe @BeamMeUpScotty In many ways, I share the same vision that Sadan has for this state. It is one focused on supporting all, offering a new and bold message for progressivism to bring real change to a system that is flawed and unfair to many. He has continuously shown himself to be the only candidate who has consistently been dedicated to sharing his message with the state. |
Scotty Marlowe @BeamMeUpScotty So tomorrow, I ask Nutmeggers to vote for Connecticut's best candidate for he has earned both my respect and my endorsement despite our different affiliations. That in itself should show all how effective his message has been on transcending partisanship and simply focusing on sharing a message and promise of helping ALL families in this great state. |
