The only political consultant in America who has won national awards for his newspaper, television and persuasion mail. A brilliant strategist and tactician who has seen it all and done it at least once.
Mike Collins The persuasion mail pieces he did in the 2008 U.S. Senate race were the best ever done by a political consultant in the State of Alaska.
Wally Hickel We were getting hammered in a TV spot and needed Jay’s political consulting services to craft an answer and deliver a lethal blow to our opponent. The spot Jay crafted was brilliant. It quickly sank the campaign of our opponent and to this day remains one of the most remembered political spots ever aired in the State of Vermont.
Tom Moore I’ve have some hard campaigns, and some not so hard campaigns during my many years as the Executive of Campbell County. The one constant has been Jay. No matter the environment, no matter the difficulty of the challenge, he is a political consultant who can easily adapt and construct a unique strategy fitted to the situation. And his mail is superb.
Steve Pendery I’ve seen political consultant Jay Townsend coach complete novices into the Halls of Congress. He loves what he does. He is very good at what he does.
Mike Long I was a complete and total unknown when we started the campaign. It was not an easy lift. I was taking on an institution and the entire political establishment. Jay never lost faith in me. He had a steely determination that inspired all of us. I defeated an incumbent in the primary by a 2-1 margin, and won the general election in a landslide. The ads Jay did for me received a national award.
Carl DuBois "The speeches he helped me craft were truly inspiring, and the video he scripted was exceptional. He never lost faith in me, treating me like his best friend throughout the process."
Abdourahamane Diallo "They had written me off when I decided to seek reelection. Jay helped me craft a brilliant strategy. I won an election most thought I was certain to lose."
Dick Murgatroyd "A great wordsmith. A terrific coach. Adept at keeping a candidate and a campaign on message. I ran for County Executive three times and each time won with more than 60% of the vote. Always with Jay by my side."

At age 28, I was elected Mayor. It would not have happened without Jay’s political consulting services, his clear direction and the superb work his did as my political consultant.
