Welcome to Rep. Mark Strama's Campaign Academy 2010 Blog!

The Mark Strama for State Representative Campaign Academy is a unique summer opportunity for high school and college students to work inside a high-profile campaign. We are learning the nuts and bolts of modern politics as well as the important policy questions that confront state government. Lunch speakers come in everyday ranging from current and former elected officials, political consultants, and university professors to state policy experts to share their experiences in politics with us.

Campaign Academy has been dedicated to ensuring that all students like us have a rewarding and challenging experience, while making a difference in the political system.

Great lunch with Reps. Bolton, Maldonado, and Howard!


Today we were visited by the Big Three: Diana Maldonado, Valinda Bolton, and Donna Howard. These women carry on the ideal of the Democratic Party, representing the minority population in politics: women. They are an inspiration to all of us at the Campaign Academy because they embody the virtue that even the unlikely can win office. This can especially be said for Diana Maldonado, who was a Democratic candidate and won in one of the most Republican districts.
We would like to thank these women for taking time out of their busy schedule to come and share their experiences with us.
