Absolutely. At my school, I have run 3 presidential campaigns. Won the last two of them. Was just hired to run another one this semester. We have political parties, and previous campaigns (not even releasing figures for this camapign, never know who is on GC) we spent about $6,000 on the election. Its hard, but some FUN stuff. Cool part, I get paid to do this. 15 - 20% of our total budget (budget comes from fundraising). The connections are cool too.
