Goergen headed the FDP election campaign "Werkstatt 8" in the state election campaign in North Rhine-Westphalia in 2000 , in which the FDP was able to improve from 4.0 to 9.8 percent of the votes. In 2001, as a strategy consultant, he designed “ Strategy 18 ” for Jürgen Möllemann . In 2002 he became Guido Westerwelle's strategy advisor until he left the FDP after the 2002 federal election .
