McKee’s Campaign Announces It Has Hired One of Raimondo's Consulting Firms

Governor Dan McKee’s election campaign announced on Tuesday that it has engaged Rising Tide Interactive, “a full-service digital marketing agency, to implement comprehensive digital fundraising and persuasion programs.”

The firm worked for former Governor Gina Raimondo’s 2014 and 2018 campaigns and her campaign paid them in excess of $725,000.

McKee’s campaign claims, “Rising Tide Interactive’s work has helped win 30 US Senate and gubernatorial contests.  In the past two election cycles, the firm's clients have included the campaigns of Senators Jeanne Shaheen, Mark Warner, Jackie Rosen, Kyrsten Sinema and Tim Kaine -- and Governors Andy Beshear, and Kate Brown."
