Come together. Right now. AAPC. 1969 gave us Abbey Road. It also gave us AAPC. 57 years later, we're still bringing together the people behind the campaigns—from strategists and staffers to digital innovators and creative minds. Different paths. Different perspectives. One profession.

What’s something someone from the other side of the aisle taught you that stuck with you?

57 years. One special recipe. ⭐ Since 1969, AAPC has brought together the people, ideas, and talent that make political campaigns possible. A little bipartisan spirit, a dash of healthy competition, and 57 years of making history. Some things just get better with age. 🎉

We'd like to congratulate the sun on having better work-life balance than anyone in politics.

Being an AAPC Member means your most-used phrase may be “Who has the latest version?”

As the world's largest association of political and public affairs professionals, we're proud to be a bipartisan community dedicated to connecting industry leaders, championing excellence, and advancing the profession. For 57 years, the industry has evolved. Campaigns have changed. Technology has transformed how we communicate. But our commitment to the people behind it all remains the same.

Good polling should make the public conversation clearer, not murkier. Transparency around methodology and sponsorship helps everyone interpret the numbers responsibly.

I wake up every morning, drive to campaign HQ, and go through call time, canvassing, mail, digital, voter contact, rapid response and GOTV. But on Pretzel Day…

Is it really a campaign meeting if someone doesn’t say “we should probably poll that”?

Protecting personal data and preserving legitimate political communication are both important. Good policy has to understand how the two interact.

Political professionals do complicated work on very short deadlines. AAPC is here to make that work a little easier, a little smarter and a lot more connected.

We’ve seen enough. 🍰 Happy National Dessert Day.

And the winner is: @VeepHBO @tamarakeithNPR @ericwilson @_Schwenzfeier @Cmkahn @bjmartino

Hollywood has given us The West Wing, Veep, House of Cards… but which one actually gets politics right? 🎬 We asked the political experts at the AAPC Foundation Forum, and let's just say they had some opinions. 😂 Watch their answers—and tell us your pick! 🍿

Today, we stand together in support of those fighting breast cancer, honor the survivors, remember those we've lost, and recognize the families, caregivers, and advocates who make a difference every day. Together, we stand strong, raise awareness, and work toward a future free from breast cancer. 🎀

Every political professional has at least one charger that now belongs to the campaign forever.

Some Mondays just hit different. Nearly a week later, and we're still thinking about the powerful data, big ideas, exceptional speakers, and unforgettable dialogue at the AAPC Foundation Forum 2026. What a group. What a conversation. What a Monday.
