I am campaign manager for a guy who is running for city council. There are over 7,000 people in our district, and I have experience with campaigning.

The three groups in our district are students (in dorms), renters (in five huge apartment complexes) and residential areas.


My question is this: While the election is in November, I want to get started on wearing down area business owners, neighborhood councils and other people who could give endorsements such as student groups.

Basically, how can I connect with business owners/other people in authoritative positions? Is lunch at a cafe or something permissible for a city council candidate? Is that appropriate?
 
I would be careful, if your candidate has declared and submitted the proper paperwork and fees. not to violate any campaign or election laws in your State.
 
Such things as lunches should permissible. They are, at least, in my hometown.

Just make sure that when the potential candidate starts the campaign they leave their morals and ethics at the door. Morals and ethics do not serve politicians well.
