RomanDuffy offers election consulting services focused on working with all district campaign leaders on election canvassing strategies tailored exclusively for your district.
Personal canvassing and reporting is a unique service we offer because it works! That's why we guarantee NO FEE UNTIL YOU WIN!
At RomanDuffy, our mission is to win your election.
At RomanDuffy, we have been bond/millage committee leaders and ballot question advisors/volunteers in over twenty winning campaigns, including the 2025 Fruitport and Bronson Community School Bond Campaigns, the 2023 Center Line Schools Bond and Millage Campaign, and the 2020 Macomb County Enhancement Millage Campaign.
The trend in Michigan now is about half of all school bond elections fail (Michigan Voters Reject School Bond Requests).
​
However, out of twenty-four districts in Michigan that ran bond campaigns in 2025 advertising a millage increase, only four passed!
​
If your district is planning a millage increase in your bond campaign, your chance of winning is 17% based on the 2025 results.​​​​
​
With RomanDuffy, you can beat the odds and win. Our only job is to help you win!
​
​
