FAQ

Campaign door hangers come in three standard sizes: 4×9 for the traditional door knob hanger format, 4×11 for more space on candidate photo and endorsements, and 4.25×14 for the maximum panel size. All three include the die-cut door slot — single or double sided — so the piece hangs correctly on any standard door knob.

Your candidate’s name, race, and a clear ask — whether that’s a vote, an early voting date, or an Election Day reminder. Strong door hangers include a candidate photo, two to three key points, and a QR code or website. For GOTV drops, lead with the polling date and location. For early voting pushes, include the exact dates and a link to your state’s voter information portal. Keep it scannable — the voter sees it in passing.

Yes. Double-sided political door hangers let you run your main message on the front and your endorsements, issues list, or early voting information on the back. Available on all three sizes at checkout — no separate SKU, no minimum for double-sided printing.

Yes. The union bug is available on every door hanger order — no surcharge, no minimum. It appears in the lower corner of your print. If your artwork is already designed, we add it at checkout. No competitor in the door hanger market consistently offers union printing with the bug on every order — this is our primary differentiator.

All campaign door hangers are printed on 100# cover stock — available in gloss or matte finish. Gloss holds color for photo-heavy designs. Matte reads more professional for text-heavy messaging. Both finishes hold up to the handling a canvassing shift demands — tucked in a bag, passed between volunteers, and pulled through door slots dozens of times a day.

Door hangers work well for absentee ballot and early voting reminders because they stay at the door with a clear, visible message — unlike palm cards, which often get set down and forgotten. Include the application deadline, drop-off locations, and a QR code linking to your state’s voter portal. The 4×11 and 4.25×14 sizes give you enough space to present all that information clearly without crowding.

Plan one door hanger per targeted household in your walk universe, plus 10–15% overage for re-walks, missed doors, and last-week GOTV drops. For 2,500 targeted households, order 2,750–3,000. For 10,000 households, order 11,000–12,000. Size to your field program, not your voter file — every unwalked door hanger is budget wasted.

Door hangers require a volunteer to bring the piece to the door — more targeted, more labor-intensive. Direct mail reaches every household in a zip code or CRIS file passively. Door hangers typically have higher read rates because the voter has to physically remove them to get inside. If you have the volunteer capacity to walk a targeted list, door hangers are one of the highest-ROI leave-behind formats in any campaign’s field program.

For the 2026 cycle, plan your first campaign door hanger run three to four weeks before your early voting window opens. Production is 5 business days from artwork approval, plus shipping time to your location. Your GOTV run should be in hand at least 10 days before Election Day. Order early — production slots fill as the cycle heats up and competing campaigns are placing orders at the same time.

Election Day door hangers are among the most targeted GOTV formats available. A final-weekend drop focused on one message — your polling location, hours, and a single clear ask — consistently outperforms broader mail in high-propensity precincts. Keep the design simple: candidate name, polling location, date, and a QR code to the voter lookup tool. The voter should be able to read the entire piece in five seconds.

Primary election door hangers are especially cost-effective because primary electorates are small and highly targeted. A focused drop to your highest-propensity primary voters — with early voting dates and a clear ask — can move the needle in a low-turnout primary where every door matters. The 4×9 at 500–1,000 pieces is the right scale for most competitive primaries at the state house or city council level.

The last week is where door hangers earn their place on the campaign budget. A final-week drop focused on GOTV, early voting deadlines, or Election Day logistics is the highest-value use of the format. To have them in hand for a final-weekend walk, order no later than 10 days before you need them — production is 5 business days, plus shipping. If you’re planning two drops, order both runs at the same time to avoid a second production cycle under deadline pressure.

Yes — targeted precinct drops are where door hangers are most cost-effective. Rather than blanketing a district, focus on high-propensity precincts where a nudge moves votes. Your field director can pull targeted walk lists to size the order precisely. At $0.45 each for the 4×9 at 1,000 pieces, a tightly targeted precinct drop is one of the best values in campaign print.

Early voting door hangers are one of the highest-ROI campaign print formats for 2026. Include the early voting window dates, your county clerk’s website or a QR code to the state voter portal, and one clear ask. Most campaigns run a separate early voting hanger 10–14 days before early voting opens and a second GOTV hanger the final weekend — order both runs at once to avoid a second production cycle.

Print-ready PDF is preferred. High-resolution JPG (300 dpi minimum, full bleed) is also accepted. Download the door hanger template from the store before you build your artwork — the die-cut slot must match the template exactly or the finished piece won’t hang correctly on a standard door knob. See the Campaign Print Guide for full artwork specifications across all products.

Orders start at 250 pieces. Pricing drops significantly at scale — the 4×9 goes from $1.56 each at 250 to $0.45 each at 1,000 to $0.13 each at 10,000. For orders above 10,000, use the quote form in the store for volume pricing.

Yes — your artwork stays on file in your account. Log in, go to My Account → Orders, click Reorder Design on any past order, adjust quantity if needed, and check out. Ships within 5 business days. See the campaign reorder guide for the full walkthrough.

Yes — political consultants managing multiple races get a separate account for each campaign with its own order history, artwork files, and compliance-ready records. Each account tracks independently so you can reorder door hangers for any race without mixing up materials across clients. See our campaign printing for political consultants page or take the questionnaire to connect with a specialist.

The 3″ circle is the campaign standard for lapel stickers. It’s readable from across a room, right-sized for a supporter’s chest or a volunteer’s jacket, and large enough for your candidate name and campaign logo to be immediately recognizable. Use 2.25″ for budget-conscious high-volume runs where you need maximum quantity. Use 2×3″ rectangle when your candidate name is long or you need bilingual text.

Campaign lapel stickers in the 3″ circle start at $0.44 each at 500 stickers and drop to $0.08 each at 5,000 stickers. At 5,000 stickers your total is $417 — one of the best budget stretchers in campaign printing. The 2.25″ circle drops to $0.06 each at 5,000 ($295 total). Volume pricing applies automatically in the store.

Yes — and most campaigns that start by searching for campaign buttons end up ordering lapel stickers instead. Stickers are faster to produce, cheaper per unit, and easier to distribute at scale than buttons. No pins, no assembly, no risk of damaging clothing. At 5,000 stickers for under $420, they are the most budget-friendly visibility tool available for campaigns at any level.

Yes — union printed lapel stickers are especially effective at union halls, endorsement events, and labor council meetings. Supporters wear them throughout the event, creating visible solidarity. The union bug on every sticker signals shared values to union households and satisfies endorsement requirements from labor organizations.

Candidate name, office, and one clear visual — campaign logo or a bold message. Keep it simple. At 3 inches, every word competes for space. The most effective lapel stickers have high-contrast colors, readable text at arm’s length, and the union bug on the front. Avoid cramming policy positions or endorsement lists onto a sticker — save that for your campaign palm cards.

Include lapel stickers in your launch bundle — you’ll need them from day one for volunteer identification and early events. Plan to reorder before every major event, canvass kickoff, and the final Election Day push. All stickers ship within 5 business days, so build your order timeline around your event calendar. See the campaign print calendar for production deadlines.

We recommend a High Quality Print PDF at 300 DPI in CMYK color mode. Round stickers need artwork built to the die-cut circle template — download it in the store before you start your design. We also accept AI, EPS, and high-resolution PNG files. All fonts must be outlined or embedded. Bad art files are the #1 cause of delayed orders.

The minimum order is 500 stickers. In practice, 1,000+ is the minimum useful quantity for most campaigns — a single event can burn through 500 stickers easily. The per-unit cost drops dramatically at higher quantities, so ordering your full estimated need upfront is almost always the right call.

Yes — your artwork stays on file in your account. Log in, go to My Account → Orders, click Reorder Design on any past order, adjust quantity if needed, and check out. Ships within 5 business days. Lapel stickers are the most-reordered product for many campaigns. See the campaign reorder guide for the full walkthrough.

Campaign lapel stickers use a pressure-sensitive adhesive that peels cleanly from most fabrics. They are designed to be worn for the duration of an event — a few hours — and removed without damage or residue. For delicate fabrics, supporters can stick the sticker to a lanyard or name tag holder instead.

Custom die-cut shapes are available through the quote form in the store. Submit your design with the desired shape outlined and a specialist will confirm pricing and production timeline. Standard shapes (2.25″ circle, 3″ circle, 2×3″ rectangle) are available for immediate ordering with volume pricing.

Yes — political consultants managing multiple races get a separate account for each campaign with its own order history, artwork files, and compliance-ready records. Each account tracks independently so you can reorder push cards for any race without mixing up materials across clients. See our campaign printing for political consultants page or take the questionnaire to connect with a specialist.

Yes — if your campaign operates across multiple field offices or event staging locations, we can ship to multiple addresses on a single order. Request this through the quote form in the store and note your delivery locations.

Rush production is available for tight deadlines. Fill out the quote form in the store with your quantity, size, and required delivery date — a specialist will confirm turnaround and pricing. For reorders, your artwork is already on file, so the process is even faster.

Order campaign palm cards at 120% of your targeted voter universe. A 10,000-voter race needs roughly 12,000 cards — one per voter contact, plus extras for volunteers and events. Most campaigns reorder 2–3 times per cycle. Always build in a 20% buffer heading into the final GOTV push.

Campaign palm cards in the standard 4.25×6 size start at $0.69 each at 250 cards and drop to $0.07 each at 10,000 cards. At 5,000 cards the cost is $412 — less than a nickel per voter contact card. For a 10,000-voter race, your full palm card program runs around $707. See exact pricing in the store →

The 4.25×6 is the campaign standard — right-sized for canvassing, events, and voter contact. Use 4×9 for a slim card that fits a #10 envelope. Use 3.5×8.5 or 4.25×11 when you have more content — endorsements, bilingual copy, or detailed policy. Use 6×9 for maximum visual presence. The 3×5 is the budget option for high-volume distribution.

Most campaigns use both. Campaign palm cards go to voters you talk to at the door. Campaign door hangers are your leave-behind when nobody answers. Order palm cards at 120% of your universe, door hangers at 50–60%. For a 10,000-voter race: 12,000 palm cards + 6,000 door hangers is the standard program.

Palm cards, push cards, and walk cards are different names for the same product — a printed card handed to voters during canvassing and at campaign events. The term varies by region: campaign managers in the northeast typically say “palm cards,” many consultants say “push cards,” and field organizers often say “walk cards.” All are printed on the same 100# gloss cover stock and available in the same six sizes.

The union bug is an optional selection on every palm card product — choose GCIU/Teamsters, Allied, Both, or None. Palm cards are handed directly to voters, so the union bug is visible in every voter interaction. Most union endorsing organizations require it on all printed materials.

Front: candidate photo, name, office you’re running for, and one clear message — keep it scannable. Voters spend 5–10 seconds on a palm card. Back: endorsements, 3–4 key policy positions, election date, and how to vote (including early voting and absentee options). The union bug goes on the back. If you’re running a bilingual campaign, the 3.5×8.5 or 4.25×11 sizes give you room for both languages.

Include campaign palm cards in your launch bundle and plan to reorder at least twice — once as your canvass ramps up and again as your field program hits full speed. Never let your canvass team run out of materials. See the campaign print calendar for production deadlines tied to your election date.

We recommend a High Quality Print PDF at 300 DPI in CMYK color mode — that’s the standard for sharp campaign palm card printing. We also accept AI, EPS, and high-resolution PNG files. All fonts must be outlined or embedded. Provide separate front and back files clearly labeled. Bad art files are the #1 cause of delayed orders — use the file prep checklist before you upload.

The minimum order is 250 cards. In practice, 5,000 is the minimum useful quantity for most campaigns — the per-unit cost drops dramatically at higher quantities. Ordering your full estimated universe upfront is almost always the right call. Standard storefront tiers: 250 / 500 / 1,000 / 2,500 / 5,000 / 10,000 / 15,000 / 20,000 / 25,000 / 30,000.

Palm cards and door hangers are different sizes and formats — the same artwork file won’t transfer directly. However, if your campaign design is built in a flexible layout, your designer can adapt the core artwork for each format. Download the templates for both products in the store to set up your files correctly from the start.

Yes — your artwork stays on file in your account. Log in, go to My Account → Orders, click Reorder Design on any past order, adjust quantity if needed, and check out. Ships within 5 business days. Most campaigns underestimate palm card consumption during the final push — build in a buffer. See the campaign reorder guide for the full walkthrough.

Rush production is available on most palm card orders. Fill out the quote form in the store with your quantity, size, and deadline — a specialist will confirm turnaround and pricing before your order is placed.

Yes — political consultants managing multiple races get a separate account for each campaign with its own order history, artwork files, and compliance-ready records. Each account tracks independently so you can reorder push cards for any race without mixing up materials across clients. See our campaign printing for political consultants page or take the questionnaire to connect with a specialist.

Yes — if your campaign operates across multiple field offices or canvass staging locations, we can ship to multiple addresses on a single order. Request this through the quote form in the store and note your delivery locations.

Proofs are available when you request a quote in the store. Standard orders approve their file on the site, removing the need for a drawn-out proofing process — it’s the preferred method and the fastest path to production.

The standard uses 100# gloss cover stock — premium weight, durable through a full canvassing season. If your campaign needs a different material for a specific application, request a quote in the store and a specialist will advise on what’s available.

The standard offers six sizes — 3×5, 4.25×6, 3.5×8.5, 4×9, 4.25×11, and 6×9 — with CMYK digital printing. For custom sizes, die-cut shapes, and PMS/Pantone color matching, request a quote in the store. Pantone matching is especially useful for campaigns with strict brand color standards or union logo requirements.

For a city council race with 5,000–15,000 voters, plan on 150–300 political yard signs. Start with supporter lawns in your highest-turnout precincts, then push into main corridors. Order 18×24 for lawns and 24×36 for intersections. A typical investment for this race level is $750–$1,350.

Pricing depends on size and quantity. Campaign yard signs in the standard 18×24 size range from $14.50 each at 10 signs down to $4.00 each at 500 signs. The 24×36 intersection size ranges from $38.00 each at 10 down to $8.00 each at 500. Volume pricing applies automatically — see the full pricing cards above.

Order your first run 8–10 weeks before your campaign launch. For a November election, that means having your yard signs ordered by late summer at the latest. All signs ship within 5 business days from checkout. See the campaign print calendar for all order windows and deadlines tied to your election date.

If your campaign has or expects a union endorsement, the bug is typically required on all printed materials. The union bug is an optional selection on every yard sign product — choose GCIU/Teamsters, Allied, Both, or None during product options. Don’t order from a non-union printer and reprint later. Learn more about why campaigns use union printing.

All yard signs ship within 5 business days from checkout. Upload print-ready files in the store and your order goes into production immediately. Rush production is available for tight deadlines — fill out the quote form in the store and note your required delivery date.

The 18×24 is the standard for residential lawns and most placements. For high-traffic intersections where drivers need to read your name from a distance, go with 24×36. Most campaigns mix both sizes for full coverage. Need custom yard sign sizes, shapes, or poly bag signs? Request a quote through the store.

They serve different purposes and most campaigns order both. Political yard signs are your sustained, 24/7 outdoor presence — they sit in supporter lawns and intersections building name recognition for weeks. Political rally signs are event-specific — handheld signs printed on opaque stock for rallies, debates, and polling places on Election Day. Order yard signs first for sustained coverage, then rally signs closer to your events.

We recommend a High Quality Print PDF at 300 DPI in CMYK color mode — that’s the standard for sharp political yard sign printing. We also accept AI, EPS, and high-resolution PNG files. Bad art files are the #1 cause of delayed orders — use the file prep checklist before you upload.

H-stakes are $1.25 each and selected during product options. 24×36 yard signs require two stakes per sign ($2.50/sign). H-stakes are not available for 48×48 and 48×96 sizes. If you need more or fewer stakes than your sign quantity, request through the quote form in the store.

Yes — your artwork stays on file in your account. Log in, go to My Account → Orders, click Reorder Design on any past order, adjust quantity if needed, and check out. Ships within 5 business days. Most campaigns reorder yard signs at least once. See the campaign reorder guide for the full walkthrough.

Minimum order is 10 signs for all standard sizes. Volume pricing drops significantly at 50, 100, 200, and 500 signs — most campaigns see real savings once they get above 50. See all union printed yard sign pricing in the size cards above.

Campaign yard signs are built on 4mm corrugated polypropylene — the industry standard for outdoor political signage. The material is weather-resistant and lightweight, and we print with UV-stable inks that hold vivid color through a full campaign season. Signs are reusable if stored properly between cycles.

Rush production is available for tight deadlines. Fill out the quote form in the store and note your required delivery date — we’ll confirm turnaround and pricing for your order. For reorders, your artwork is already on file, so the process is even faster.

Order political bumper stickers at 1×–3× your yard sign quantity — the ratio slides down as your yard sign order grows. A local race with 150 yard signs should plan 300–450 bumper stickers. A state legislative race with 600 yard signs plans 600–1,000. At under $0.60 each at volume, bumper stickers are one of the best exposure-per-dollar investments in campaign printing — every supporter’s vehicle carries your name across the district on every commute. Hand them out at events, canvass stops, and volunteer shifts. They’re cheap enough to give away freely.

No. Campaign bumper stickers use ultra-removable adhesive that peels off cleanly with no paint damage and no residue. Safe for all vehicle finishes — including clear coat, matte paint, and vinyl wraps. Supporters are far more likely to put a sticker on their vehicle when they know it comes off cleanly after Election Day. This is one of the questions we hear most often from first-time buyers — the answer is always the same: no damage, no mess.

Political bumper stickers printed on PVC vinyl with UV-resistant inks hold vivid color through a full campaign season — typically 6–12 months of outdoor exposure on a vehicle. Colors won’t fade, chalk, or peel from sun or rain exposure during a standard campaign cycle. For multi-year placements or extended outdoor signage, request a quote for laminated or extended-life vinyl options.

The 3.75×11 is the most-ordered campaign bumper sticker size — maximum visibility readable in traffic, with more horizontal room for your candidate name and campaign message. The 4×9 is the compact option that fits any bumper without overhanging, and works well on non-vehicle surfaces like water bottles, toolboxes, hard hats, and windows. If your primary goal is traffic visibility, go with 3.75×11. If you’re distributing to volunteers and supporters for multi-surface use, the 4×9 is more versatile.

Yes. Campaign bumper stickers work on any smooth non-porous surface — windows, water bottles, laptops, toolboxes, coolers, hard hats, union halls, and campaign offices. The ultra-removable adhesive peels cleanly from all surfaces. The 4×9 is the more practical format for multi-surface distribution because it fits comfortably on smaller items.

Yard signs are stationary — they build name recognition on lawns and at key intersections in specific neighborhoods. Bumper stickers are mobile — they carry your name across the entire district on every supporter’s daily commute, errand, and school run. Most campaigns order both. The right balance is 1×–3× bumper stickers for every yard sign, with the ratio sliding toward 1× as your yard sign order grows. Together they cover stationary and mobile visibility across the full district — a yard sign signals support in a neighborhood, a bumper sticker signals it everywhere the supporter goes.

We recommend a High Quality Print PDF at 300 DPI in CMYK color mode — that’s the standard for sharp campaign bumper sticker printing. We also accept AI, EPS, and high-resolution PNG files. All fonts must be outlined or embedded. Download the bumper sticker template for your size before you build — it ensures correct bleed and dimensions. Bad art files are the #1 cause of delayed orders; use the template from the start.

The minimum order is 125 stickers. Volume pricing drops at 250, 500, and 1,000. For most campaigns, 500–1,000 stickers is the minimum useful quantity — the per-unit cost drops significantly and you’ll have enough to distribute freely at events, canvass stops, and volunteer shifts without running short before Election Day.

Yes — your artwork stays on file in your account. Log in, go to My Account → Orders, click Reorder Design on any past order, adjust quantity if needed, and check out. Ships within 5 business days. Most campaigns underestimate bumper sticker consumption during the final push — build in a buffer when you place your first order. See the campaign reorder guide for the full walkthrough.

Yes. Campaign bumper stickers are printed on PVC vinyl with UV-resistant inks and are fully weatherproof — rain, sun, snow, and temperature swings won’t cause peeling, fading, or adhesive failure through a full campaign season. For a standard election cycle lasting 6–12 months, the vinyl and inks hold up without any degradation under normal outdoor conditions on a vehicle.

Rush production is available on most bumper sticker orders. Fill out the quote form in the store with your quantity, size, and deadline — a specialist will confirm turnaround and pricing before your order is placed. Rush orders that bypass standard production scheduling may incur additional costs depending on timeline and quantity.

Standard orders ship in the 3.75×11 or 4×9 rectangle format. Custom die-cut shapes — ovals, circles, or campaign-specific outlines — are available through the quote form in the store. Custom shapes are especially useful for campaigns with distinctive logos or state-outline designs. Request a quote with your artwork and intended dimensions.

Yes — political consultants managing multiple races get a separate account for each campaign with its own order history, artwork files, and compliance-ready records. Each account tracks independently so you can reorder push cards for any race without mixing up materials across clients. See our campaign printing for political consultants page or take the questionnaire to connect with a specialist.

Yes. If your campaign operates across multiple field offices or canvass staging locations, we can ship to multiple addresses on a single order. Request this through the quote form in the store and note your delivery locations. Useful for coordinated campaigns distributing bumper sticker kits to county-level field operations.

Political rally signs are printed full-color on 100# or 120# opaque stock — a heavy, bright-white paper stock that produces vivid colors and sharp text. This is not corrugated plastic. Every rally sign is printed with the same image on both sides — no single-sided option. Rally signs are designed for handheld use at events, indoor display in storefronts and union halls, and polling place visibility. They lay flat and display cleanly in any indoor setting.

Campaign rally signs are handheld signs printed on opaque stock for events, debates, and polling places. Political yard signs are printed on corrugated plastic and mounted on H-stakes for outdoor residential display. The two products serve different roles — rally signs are event-driven and temporary, yard signs provide sustained neighborhood visibility. If your rally sign artwork is 18×24, the same file works directly for yard signs.

Election day signs come in five sizes: 11×17, 12×18 (most popular), 14×22, 18×24, and 22×28. The 12×18 is the standard for rallies and poll locations — visible from a distance, easy to hold all day. The 18×24 gives maximum visibility and shares artwork dimensions with standard yard signs. The 22×28 is reserved for major events, convention floors, and campaign headquarters displays.

Yes — rally signs can be taped in windows, hung in storefronts and union halls, affixed to foam board or display stands, or placed on easels at campaign headquarters. Printed on 100# or 120# opaque stock, they lay flat and display cleanly in any indoor setting. They are not designed for outdoor staking — if you need signs on stakes outdoors, order political yard signs.

Political rally signs start at $1.99 per sign for the 11×17 and 12×18 sizes at 100 quantity. Volume pricing drops significantly — at 5,000 signs, pricing drops to $0.43 per sign for those sizes. Larger sizes (14×22, 18×24, 22×28) start higher but follow the same volume curve. All sizes are union-made and ship within 5 business days from checkout.

Yes — if your rally sign artwork is 18×24, the same print-ready file works directly for political yard signs. This is useful for campaigns that want matching handheld signs for events and staked signs for lawns and intersections. Upload once, order both products from the same file.

Order campaign rally signs at least 2 weeks before Election Day to allow for production and shipping. All rally signs ship within 5 business days from checkout, so you have flexibility — but don’t wait until the final week. For reorders, your artwork stays on file. Log in, click Reorder Design, and check out in minutes. See the campaign print calendar for production deadlines tied to your election date.

The union bug is an optional selection on every rally sign product. Union-made rally signs with the bug signal to labor councils, endorsing organizations, and union households that your materials were produced at an authorized union print shop. Many campaigns seeking labor endorsements include the union bug on all printed materials — rally signs, yard signs, palm cards, and door hangers.

Election day signs at polling places are the last visual touchpoint before voters enter. Volunteers hold rally signs with candidate names and messages at the designated distance from polling entrances — creating a final impression that reinforces name recognition built over months of campaigning. The 12×18 size is the standard for poll location visibility. Plan 200+ signs distributed across all polling locations in your district for full coverage.

Rally signs, placards, and picket signs are different names for the same product — handheld printed signs used at events, rallies, demonstrations, marches, and campaign activities. The term varies by region and context: labor unions and advocacy groups often say “placards,” campaigns say “rally signs,” and protest organizers say “picket signs.” All are printed on the same 100# or 120# opaque stock, available in the same five sizes, and ship within 5 business days.
