Attend legislative sessions, committee meetings when you can.

scrub all posts on the internet that they can use against you. Do it yourself 1st, then hire a company to do it for you to double check.
Network in the D party. Become a campaign bundler, unpaid advisor for education etc.
Get a platform and make a website. Only hire IT recommended by the party.
