Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Review Method: Peer Reviewed Abstract: Technological advances often cause political change, with the Internet’s impact on political parties and Senate candidates being no exception. Using qualitative analysis, this paper explores how state parties and Senate candidates utilized the Web in electoral strategy during the 2004 election. Based on in-depth interviews with 26 Web-oriented staff members, this research presents an insightful perspective on what purposes the Internet served, what Web-based tools were found most effective, and what tools were purposefully avoided. This study finds four common goals of party and candidate Web sites: mobilizing existing supporters, getting the message out, empowering existing supporters, and soliciting contributions. State parties stressed “party as service” through facilitating collaboration between constituency groups and serving as a pathway between constituents and government, while candidates stressed intimidating the opponent and communicating with the media. Implications of these findings are discussed.
