Progressive political consulting and organizing in Austin

B-59 is an Austin studio that works only with Democratic and progressive campaigns and causes in Texas: finding voters, getting propositions on the ballot and turning voters out.

Based in
Austin, Texas
Led by
Jonathon Reise
Works with
Democratic and progressive campaigns, local parties and causes

What we do

  • Field organizing

    Field plans, precinct targets and volunteer programs a team can run from the first week.

  • Ballot measures and petitions

    Petition drives that put a proposition on the ballot, with signatures checked against the voter roll as they come in, then the voter contact that carries it on election day.

  • Data and targeting

    County and precinct turnout against past cycles, polling averages, and the vote goal a race needs.

  • Communications

    Messaging, op-eds and newsletters for candidates and local parties.

  • Brand and campaign design

    Identity systems, field-ready collateral and merch, so a campaign looks like itself everywhere it shows up.

  • Campaign tools

    Websites and tools built for the campaign in front of us, not adapted from a template.

Experience

Jonathon Reise has served as Field Director for the Travis County Democratic Party, works as Communications Director for the Pflugerville Area Democrats, and has organized for candidates up and down the ballot. B-59 builds its software out of that field work.
