How Simple It Can (Sometimes) Be.

It’s hard not to think about branding and image advertising during any election season. Even more so this season. But now that election day is finally here, I thought I’d share with you a striking example of how very simple and uncomplicated branding can sometimes be. My five-year-old daughter voted last week. Not to worry, she wasn’t registered by an Acorn volunteer and using an absentee ballot or anything. The voting was completely unofficial and took place at her elementary school. Results were published in the school newsletter the next day. My daughter cast her vote for Barack Obama, and was very proud to tell us all about it when she got home. When I asked her why she chose Obama, she replied, “I heard of him first and I liked his name.” Well, okay. It doesn’t get much more simple than that.

Oh and for any of you who are interested in the results, the student body elected the democratic candidate in an admittedly less landmark, but nonetheless interesting, election. With excellent voter turnout, I might add.
