It varied a lot across campaigns. I had an easier time getting meetings once the Washington Post article came out. In fairness to the DCCC, they also vouched for me when campaigns called to check my bona fides. The Progressive Change Campaign Committee also opened a lot of doors.

One candidate left me and a friend to watch his open laptop in a San Francisco cafe, two minutes after we met.
