Caldwell, NJ – Publitics was named a finalist for three Campaigns and Elections Magazine Stanley F. Reed Awards for work on Christine McGrath’s win for Verona Town Council, FMBA Local 84 and 284’s efforts on behalf of Jeff Martin for Hamilton Mayor and Fran Ritter’s upset win for Wayne Town Council.

The Reed Awards recognize the best in campaign and politics work nationwide. Publitics was named a finalist for best mail piece for a county, local or judicial nonpartisan campaign, the best mail piece for a Democratic mayoral campaign and the best web video produced on a shoestring budget for a Democrat.

“We pride ourselves on bringing our clients cutting edge messaging, design and strategy. It is gratifying to have our work recognized as some of the best in the country,” said Publitics founder and principal Matt Krayton.

“The Reed Awards represent the very best in professional politics. While ultimately the electorate is the final arbiter of effective campaigning, being recognized by industry peers is always an honor,” added Publitics principal Henry de Koninck.

Sam Liebman, the newest member of the Publitics team, managed the Ritter campaign and co-produced the Reed Awards Finalist web video. “Winning a tough race is always a great validation of the work we do. Being nominated for a Reed Award is a bonus,” Liebman commented.
