WHO WE ARE / WHAT WE DO

Jeff Ballabon is a public affairs and campaign strategist serving an elite client base including members of the United States Congress and select political candidates, major media, communications and education companies, and global and national not-for-profit corporations.  He brings his clients an unparalleled national network and strategic alliances which enable him to provide candidates with a full array of services including polling and focus groups, media training, media relations, public relations, speechwriting, event planning, direct mail and more.

 

He has significant expertise in reputation and crisis management and, over the past decade, has run successful issue campaigns across the nation. 

 

In the 2004 presidential election, Jeff combined his professional, political and policy experience with his intimate understanding of the traditional Jewish community - a demographic that is both politically active and a potential key to a number of swing states, including Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania and more.

The results were extraordinary.  As the national Jewish newspaper, the Forward reported:


Ballabon…basically created a new demographic this election cycle...he helped put his fellow Orthodox Jews on the map as a separate Republican Party constituency. He — or rather, President Bush — was rewarded royally when as many as 80% of Orthodox Jews nationally gave their vote to the GOP ticket…


Jeff is a graduate of the Ner Israel Rabbinical College, Yeshiva University, and Yale Law School.   He has served as Legislative Counsel to Senator John Danforth (R-MO) and as Republican Counsel to the Consumer Affairs and Product Safety Subcommittee of the United States Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation.

 

He has held leadership positions in influential public policy organizations, among them the Federalist Society, the American Legislative Exchange Council and the Ronald Reagan Legacy Project.  He is Chairman of the Board of Jewish College Republicans and is a founder of YJLPAC, one of two Republican-Jewish PACs in the United States.

He was named by the Forward as one of the "50 Most Influential" Jews in America and designated one of the "Yale 300" distinguished Jewish alumni on the occasion of the university's tercentennial.
