Campaigns & Elections has named the finalists for the prestigious Reed Awards. The Michael Melham for Mayor campaign has been recognized as a finalist in the Digital – Advertising & Targeting category; specifically for ‘Best Use of Online Targeting For Mayoral Candidate.’

Michael Melham was sworn in as Mayor of Belleville in July, after upending an entrenched three-term incumbent and bringing in his entire team.

“After the election, our campaign received a lot of attention. Mostly for the grass-roots effort, which utilized mostly first time volunteers that focused on collecting vote by mail applications/ballots. It’s an honor to also see the custom built software my company developed get the recognition it deserves,” Mayor Melham stated. “The targeting software created by AlphaDog Solutions, organized the effort by tracking and chasing voters who don’t normally participate in local (non-partisan) elections.”

Winners will be announced at the Reed Awards Ceremony at the 2019 Reed Awards & Conference in Austin, TX on February 20-21, 2019. Tickets for the Reed Awards have sold out for the last two years.
