CLIENT TESTIMONIALS
Where political science and strategy come together.
For Political, Corporate and Non-Profit Clients
ACCESSIBLE:
“You can reach them, tell them when you need something, and you get it. They go the extra mile. John Grimm and John Scurich are accessible during a campaign, even into the AM hours. I think they slept less than I did during my campaigns. That is critical and often the difference between winning and losing. I know that was especially the case in my two election wins."
-Ray Garofalo, State Representative, Chalmette, LA
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WINNING AND LOSING:
“I was a local attorney taking on two experienced Assistant DAs for District Judge. I was less known and outspent by my opponents, but the precision polling of John Grimm, and the media and campaign strategy devised by John Scurich was nothing short of masterful, and lead to my victory.”
-Kim Cooper Jones, Judge, 34th Judicial District, St. Bernard Parish, LA
SOUND STRATEGY:
“One of the first questions we ask a candidate that we will be representing is when we can survey the political landscape. Multi-Quest has been a great strategic partner of Sweda Advertising in many of our successful races. Multi-Quest provides very accurate polling data along with sound strategy advice that helps us build a foundation for our political clients. An election process is often a long and complicated journey and Multi-Quest helps by providing us with a solid road map.”
-George Sweda, President of Sweda Advertising, Pennsylvania
RESULTS WITHOUT THE NONSENSE:
“In 2016 I faced a challenger for my re-election who constantly attacked me. John and John polled and determined the strategic issues my campaign needed to focus on, which were different from what locals were advising me. As usual, they were right and I soundly won re-election. Their media strategy was to the point, efficient, no-nonsense, and most importantly, cost-effective. I will not do another campaign without them.”
-Senator Todd Gardenhire, Chattanooga, TN
DON’T MAKE A MOVE WITHOUT THEM:
"I have come to depend on Multi-Quest for nearly everything. I take John Grimm’s polling results as the ‘Word of God’ and John Scurich’s political observations as having his thumb on the pulse of what’s going on. In my last campaign, another consultant dropped the ball at the last minute. John and John stepped in, completed the media and phone banking I needed, and got me re-elected. I continue to use them to survey my constituents and value their recommendations.”
Chris Leopold, State Representative, Plaquemines Parish, LA
INTEGRITY:
“We’re Democrats in an increasingly more Republican area, but Multi-Quest delivers irrespective of party. Their allegiance is first and foremost to the client. They work for the candidate, not the parties.”
-Eliana DeFrancesch, Clerk of Court (D), St. John Parish, Louisiana
CONFIDENTIAL:
“Multi-Quest polling is very confidential. Their integrity is above reproach. I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.”
-Ward Crutchfield, former Democrat State Senator, Chattanooga, Tennessee
ACCURATE:
“To my knowledge, in over 25 years, Multi-Quest has never done an exit poll or sample-precinct prediction that
wasn’t accurate.”
-Matt James, Operations & General Manager, Catamount Broadcasting Group, Chico-Redding, California
FOCUSED:
“When my firm retains Multi-Quest to conduct a phone operation, I know that I’m getting so much more than just a phone room of callers. John and John will give you an unlimited amount of personal attention to discuss your campaign, regardless of the size of your race. They are honest, very focused on the project at hand, and will keep you routinely informed about the progress of the particular project. I would recommend them to anyone.”
-Chad Melder, Consultant, Baton Rouge, LA
PERFECT PLANNING AND EXECUTION:
“I had Multi-Quest poll for me in my re-election campaign. It showed I was losing, but their poll analysis revealed the issues that separated me from my challenger among voter opinion. John and John created a pinpoint strategy and campaign plan to get out the needed message. The perfect execution of their media plan turned things around in less than a month - and I won. I have them to thank.”
-Tim Boyd, County Commissioner, Hamilton County, TN
HONEST:

the time.”

LISTEN TO THEM AND WIN:
“I was in a tight race and many felt my campaign literature and media campaign was lacking something. I hired Multi-Quest to do a poll in my race and they provided me with a specific strategy. The media produced by John Scurich worked within my budget, it improved my message and professional image, and propelled me to a parish (county) wide victory.”
-Richie Lewis, Councilman-at-Large, St. Bernard Parish, LA
EFFECTIVE:

-Jim Donelon, Insurance Commissioner of Louisiana, former State Representative, and former President of Jefferson Parish, LA
AUTHENTIC:
“The information you get will be authentic, valid, and is information you can base a decision on. It’s strictly confidential, which is not always existent in politics. It’s information only the people who bought it.”

-Nan Mitchell, Consultant, Louisiana and Texas
MULTI-QUEST KNOWS HOW TO WIN:
“Grimm and Scurich don’t work for peanuts or promises. Pay them and they deliver. Once in a close race, they knew they couldn’t stop calling voters, and told us we shouldn’t let the candidate, his family, or his volunteers stop knocking doors into the night, either. The candidate didn’t like it, but he did it. We won the election by 20 votes.”
-Bill Allerton, Consultant, Metairie, LA
INVOLVED PERSONALLY:
“John’s marketing background helps him design questionnaires that target what you need to know. I’ve never had anyone who understands the data as well as he does. His surveys are accurate and always on time. He gets involved on such a personal level that he becomes part of the campaign.”
-Jim Bonney, Consultant, Jackson, MS
TENACIOUS:
“Multi-Quest phone banking is very effective. Their phone callers are tenacious in trying to get registered voters on the phone and to the polls. Their strategy is specific. If you want the political firm that will give you the best phone banks, go see John Grimm and John Scurich. They can deliver where others can’t."
-Gene Katsanis (R), former School Board Member, Jefferson Parish, LA
TRUE POLITICAL SCIENTISTS:
“They were recommended to me for polling in my re-election.

SECOND TO NONE:
