As printers, though, we\u00a0can&#8217;t help but notice design. Here&#8217;s our list of the best designed 2016 presidential campaign logos. Since there are so many (mostly hopeless) candidates in the running, we&#8217;ll split this list by political parties. This one is just for the Democratic candidates.<\/p>\n<p><strong>6. Jim Webb<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Webb&#8217;s campaign takes the title for the\u00a0ugliest logo. Arial black, impact, and similar fonts are usually not a good idea.\u00a0Overall, it&#8217;s boring and takes no risks.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Screen-Shot-2015-10-13-at-12.02.33-PM.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-881\" src=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/Screen-Shot-2015-10-13-at-12.02.33-PM.png\" alt=\"jim webb\" width=\"347\" height=\"95\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>5. Lincoln Chafee<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Chafee&#8217;s design sense is better than Webb&#8217;s. The contrast in font types\u00a0works, but just like the one above, it&#8217;s boring and doesn&#8217;t take any risks. It&#8217;s what you expect from the political section of a stock clip art library.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/chafee.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-882\" src=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/chafee.png\" alt=\"chafee\" width=\"350\" height=\"200\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>4. Hillary Clinton<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Clinton chose a simple &#8220;H,&#8221; using her first\u00a0name instead of her last\u00a0probably to disassociate herself from her husband\u00a0Bill Clinton. Maybe that was a smart move, but in terms of design, we think it looks..okay. It&#8217;s simple and\u00a0unique (definitely taking a risk), but it is also too geometric and boring. The arrow makes it feel too heavily\u00a0weighted to the right. The colors are somewhat dull and lifeless, and they are too\u00a0close in value to be all up in each other&#8217;s business like that.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/qzprod.files.wordpress.com\/2015\/06\/11174876_903334636389733_2191364501962816506_n.png?w=740\" alt=\"\" width=\"254\" height=\"254\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>3. Lawrence Lessig<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The Harvard professor has a better\u00a0eye for design than Hillary. It&#8217;s still a bit too geometric, but the white breaks up the colors and makes it easier on the eyes. The contrast in font types is also good. Lessig takes the third spot amongst the Democrats.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-884\" src=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/lessig.png\" alt=\"lessig\" width=\"294\" height=\"294\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Martin O&#8217;Malley<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Some\u00a0designers have criticized Martin O&#8217;Malley&#8217;s logo\u00a0for not looking &#8220;political&#8221; enough. They say this looks more like the logo for a chat application than a political campaign. We agree, but that&#8217;s not such a bad thing. This will definitely stand out amongst a crowd of boring poltical logos. The font choice is nice and the colors are energetic and work well.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/photos.vanityfair.com\/2015\/06\/25\/558c483dca2dc24e4d271db6_presidential-campaigns-martin-omalley.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"502\" height=\"131\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>1. Bernie Sanders <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sanders&#8217;s campaign created the best logo on the Democratic side of this election cycle. The colors are more energetic and optimistic than Hillary&#8217;s, and the white helps visually digest them. The\u00a0font choice is completely unorthodox as far as political campaigns go, making it stand out, but it evokes friendliness and accessibility, something\u00a0the self-described democratic socialist wants to promote in order to dispel the idea that he&#8217;s a radical. Smart choice, while still creating a great design.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/upload.wikimedia.org\/wikipedia\/commons\/d\/d4\/Bernie_Sanders_2016_logo.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"564\" height=\"177\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Plus, it fits\u00a0his goofy look:<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/blogs\/the-fix\/files\/2015\/04\/imrs-11.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"464\" height=\"328\" \/><\/p>\n<p>As election season ramps up, we&#8217;ve been receiving more and more orders for campaign products.\u00a0Here are some buttons in the production process at our Houston, Texas facility:<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/bernie-buttons.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-889\" src=\"http:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/10\/bernie-buttons-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"bernie buttons\" width=\"501\" height=\"282\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To make your own buttons or other campaign products, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.24hourwristbands.com\">our site.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>You can find Part 2 of our list of the best campaign logos\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/24hourwristbands.com\/blog\/best-2016-campaign-logos-part-2\/\">here.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Yes, most people are writing about important things like economic policy.
