Here is info from the last election.

Well, they are cutting it kind of close...as you have:

no office.
no staff.
no money.

Offices are easy...staff is a challenge, but getting people to give you money is a killer. The party will send some over, but I doubt much based on last elections results.

Would be an amazingly fun experience though, and raise your profile for other political runs.
