Imagine you're running for class president, and everyone else is giving speeches on the playground while you're trying to get your friends to vote for you. You need flyers, posters, and maybe even a trumpet to announce your arrival. That’s like what happens in big political campaigns, they need a lot of things to get noticed, and all those things cost money! The more people run, the more expensive it gets.
Examples
- A candidate might buy a trumpet to make their rally more exciting.
- A campaign team could print thousands of flyers to hand out at school.
- They might rent a stage for their big speeches.
