Josh Canter, who handled messaging and get-out-the-vote activities as a campaign consultant to Israel’s now prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu, has joined McGuire Woods Consulting as VP of strategic digital communications based in Los Angeles.
For Netanyahu, Canter ran the program that got volunteers to conduct the outreach that generated about 30K voters in must-win areas of Israel.
In the US, Canter advised Republican candidates for governor such as Christine Jones in Arizona and Bob Stefananowski in Connecticut; and Congressional campaigns for Will Hurd of Texas and Rick Crawford of Arkansas.
