1050 Park Avenue (at East 87th Street)
New York, NY

RSVP: 631-434-5623 or JimmyForSenate (at) gmail.com

Drs. Bonnie Maslin and Yehuda Nir will be hosting a reception in honor of Jimmy Dahroug, a DFNYC-endorsed candidate running for the New York State Senate in District 3 (southern Suffolk County - Brentwood, East Patchogue, Shirley, Farmingville). Suggested donations are $100 - $2,500 with a suggested donation for DFNYC members of $50.

Taking back the state senate is a crucial election goal for 2008, especially before the redistricting of congressional seats with the 2010 census. When Jimmy ran in 2006, he came very close to beating long term incumbent Republican Ceasar Trunzo, and the election was one of the two closest senate elections in the state.

In 2008, Jimmy is poised to win a rematch with a solid ground campaign and the high Democratic turnout of a presidential election year. But perhaps even more importantly, Jimmy is a great advocate for the issues we stand for as grassroots progressives. He understands that we don't just want to send Democrats to Albany, we want to send good, progressive, courageous Democrats who will stand up for our values.

Please join us next Wednesday. To learn more about Jimmy, visit:
