How It Works

Palm cards are the campaign essential for rallies, debates, parades, and voter contact. We print on heavy cardstock (14pt-16pt) sized to fit comfortably in a hand—typically 4" x 6" or 3.5" x 8.5". Both sides get full-color printing showcasing your candidate photo, key positions, and endorsements. UV coating protects cards during events and canvassing. Include a QR code linking to your website or donation page. We bundle cards in convenient stacks for volunteer distribution. Rush production gets cards in your hands within 48 hours for last-minute events.

Why Choose MCI

Palm cards need to communicate fast—voters glance at them for seconds. MCI has printed palm cards for campaigns at every level since 1984. We understand political messaging and can advise on layouts that put your candidate's face and key points front and center. Our union certification means your cards carry credibility with labor voters, and our rush capability means you're never caught without materials for an unexpected opportunity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What size palm cards work best for campaigns?
4" x 6" is the most popular—large enough for key information, small enough to hand out easily. 3.5" x 8.5" rack card size works well for detailed position statements. 4" x 9" is another option when you need more vertical space for endorsement lists.
What information should go on a palm card?
Front: Candidate photo, name, office sought, and election date. Back: 3-5 key positions, major endorsements, website, and donation info. Keep it scannable—voters won't read paragraphs. QR codes linking to more information work well for engaged voters.
Can palm cards include union bug?
Yes. MCI is a certified union print shop. We include the union bug on all political materials at no extra charge. For labor-endorsed candidates, this is essential credibility with union households.
How should palm cards be distributed?
Palm cards work at any voter contact point: rallies, parades, debates, door-to-door canvassing, church events, union halls, and campaign offices. Have volunteers hand them directly to voters—the personal touch matters. Keep stacks at sign-up tables and checkout counters at friendly businesses.
