Do it Ourselves

On the heals of my previous post about the excitement on the the Keck for Assembly Campaign trail, it pains me to post the following.

It appears as if our Delaware County Democratic Committee will not be supporting us financially.

From the Chair:

"Regarding a campaign contribution, you should know that the money we raise is for countywide and local races. We have never, as long as I have been involved, contributed to a statewide campaign. .... I don't think our committee should finance your publicity to any great extent when our revenues are down and we have a number of local races next year."

What a Week!

With all the corruption, spying, lying, disasters and all round negativity fueling our collective desire for changes in government at all levels. I am pleased to report that this week on the Keck for Assembly Campaign Trail has been incredible. Three towns in Broome County held their annual Democratic Caucuses and it was refreshing to see how organized and energized they are. Kelly addressed each of them and the response was very positive. Though it is a long drive across the district, he is becoming a regular face down there and considering the population base, this is a very good thing. Things only got better and better from there.

On Saturday, the Broome County Democratic Committee hosted a morning workshop for all Democratic candidates that outlined their plan for getting out the vote and promoting Democrats. Cindy Lockrow, Campaign Manager, and Erwin Karl, Press Secretary, attended on behalf of the Keck campaign and learned so much that we can now finalize the development of our own strategic plan for victory based on Broome's very successful model. Thanks to Mike Najarian, Broome County Democratic Committee Chair and all of his supporters, our chances of victory just doubled!!!
