WHAT JTD DOES
Consultants are often all hat and no cattle. They overcharge their clients, they don't personally prioritize projects, and they neglect innovative technology and adaptive tactics. JTD Strategies is different. JTD Strategies works at the intersection of politics, public affairs, and marketing to provide general consulting, targeted deliverables, and creative communication strategies for political and corporate clients. JTD is a comprehensive consulting firm that doesn't simply provide cookie-cutter answers to varying client challenges in an ever changing world.
Whether it is JTD's experience with election-day operations, its responsive crisis management, its in-house copy and speech writing capabilities, its partnered best-in-industry database, its award-winning automated/IVR phone technology, its largely staffed and experienced partnered live call centers, or its army of peer-to-peer texters, JTD Strategies produces sapient solutions through premium services and "deliverables" by integrating battle-tested strategy and tactics with the highest quality vendors and specialists throughout the nation.
JTD partners with programmers, psychologists, and politicos to deliver intel and provide strategy, so your campaign, cause, or company can achieve its goals.
JTD is always accessible, is always forward-thinking, and is always driven when working for you and your cause.

Election Operations and Observation
JTD Strategies knows every vote counts. Election Day Operations (EDO) and Observation can make the difference on whether your votes are counted, laws are followed, and proactive steps are taken to ensure election integrity. JTD Strategies has executed successful Election Day Operations across the US and abroad. When conducting independent observation instead of EDO, JTD respects guidelines as outlined in the Declaration of Principles for International Election Observation along with contributing to and coordinating observation missions in accordance to methodological and structural frameworks followed by the Organization for Security and Co-Operation in Europe. In addition to frontline operations, JTD also advises election administrators and Parties on voting systems and protocols to safeguard the integrity of elections along with identifying vulnerabilities including cyber threats.

Meet the Founder and Principal of JTD Strategies
Joseph Tex Dozier
The "Winston Wolf of Politics"
Recognized as one of the “hundred most influential political professionals in the world” and as one of the top 40 professionals under the age of 40 by the American Association of Political Consultants, Joseph Tex Dozier is the founder and principal of JTD Strategies — a general consulting and MarCom firm that advances liberty, empowers grassroots, and advises winning causes, campaigns, and companies.
Tex has consulted on local and judicial campaigns in eighteen states, assembled and managed the largest peer-to-peer texting workforce (majority veterans and many disabled veterans), and executed winning national grassroots advocacy campaigns. During the 2016 and 2018 general-election cycles, Tex oversaw Election-Day Operations (EDO) for the National Republican Senatorial Committee.
An avid activist and advocate for free societies and for free peoples, Tex has provided advisory services, observation missions, and election operations in the US, Asia, Caribbean, and Europe where he has prioritized fostering positive relationships for the US and accession to NATO (e.g., Montenegro, Sweden, Ukraine). Tex's industry peers have also selected him as a political and public affairs all-star for "conducting extensive international advocacy and outreach to cultivate pro-NATO support in Eastern Europe and to expose Russian-backed opposition and disinformation efforts.” Tex is certified and experienced in election observation as a long-term and short-term observer by the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe. Relatedly, JTD Strategies advises election administrators, campaigns, and Parties on voting systems, cybersecurity, and InfoSec. Owing to its growth and projects abroad, Tex recently launched Vӧr Global Advisory to form an evolved firm for our evolving geopolitical environment that meets clients' tailored needs around political strategy, intelligence, and public affairs.
Before founding JTD Strategies in 2012, Tex worked with an eclectic range of organizations including the Cato Institute, the Leadership Institute, the Republican National Committee, the Sam Adams Alliance, and Young America’s Foundation. Tex gained his initial experience in politics during high school as a member of Young America’s Foundation, as John Cornyn’s first senate page, and as a field coordinator for Kinky Friedman’s gubernatorial campaign — at age 16, Tex spearheaded grassroots and volunteer efforts in North Texas to get Friedman on the ballot (170,000 voter signatures) leading to the most successful independent campaign for governor since Sam Houston.
When not solving problems for clients, Tex trains activists, students, and fellow politicos; he continually shares his knowledge and experiences through speeches and workshops to civic and political organizations. Outside of work and at home, Tex is a Wichita Wagonmaster and serves on his city council member's district advisory board, his county commissioner's citizen's advisory board, and on a private philanthropic foundation's board. He often engages in his midlife crises of playing rugby, performing in an underground cover band, and being a professional heavyweight jogger and amateur walker when ultrarunning.Tex has a B.A. in political science and a graduate certificate in professional editing from the University of Chicago.

Joseph Tex Dozier is an excellent speaker. He engages audiences with humor and energy. My classes loved hearing about his experiences as a political consultant in American and international elections and learned a great deal about what it means to be a campaign professional. Tex's considerable knowledge of political science and the business of politics makes for a memorable and enlightening presentation.
