The general objective of the study was to analyze the methods of political marketing used by councilors of Serra Branca-PB in the 2020 elections and the perceptions of councilors in the period after the elections. The specific objectives are: Explore concepts and definitions of political and electoral marketing; identify the political marketing actions, strategies and instruments used by councilors in the 2020 elections and in their term of office; to describe the actions that are successful in the political marketing of the councilors under study.
