Although Franzén & Company’s client mix has shifted in recent years from candidates and elections to advocacy organizations, our skills have been honed by long experience in the high-pressure, rapid-response world of political campaigns, where we earned an election success rate of more than 80 percent.

Our founder, John Franzén, managed Leon Panetta’s first campaign for Congress, defeating a 14-year incumbent in a district that that had been a Republican stronghold for four decades. Our firm then produced eight consecutive Panetta reelection campaigns, driving his share of the vote routinely over 70 percent.

Other challenger and open-seat candidates we’ve helped to elect include Congressmen Tim Roemer (IN-2), Collin Peterson (MN-7), David Skaggs (CO-2), Frank Pallone (NJ-6) and Sam Farr (CA-17). And we produced the successful reelection campaign of Senator J. Bennett Johnston (D-LA) against the notorious David Duke.

We’re also well versed in ballot initiative campaigns. We produced the media that defeated the most recent California School Voucher Initiative (Proposition 38) by a margin of 71-29, in the face of a $30 million campaign by the measure’s proponents.
