Many of you know Steve Behar, one of our DFNYC-endorsed candidates for city council.  He hosts our Bayside Linkup and has done a lot of volunteer trips for progressive Democratic candidates at all levels of government. 

Steve's race is very important, not just because he is a great guy, but also because he is very different than the other candidates in the 19th District.  Steve is a solid progressive who has taken a clear stand on issues that matter to us (responsible development, civil rights, marriage equality, Clean Money Clean Elections), and he is not funded by real estate developers and other lobbyists.  This is very important - we need to get candidates elected to the city council who are not compromised by their campaign contributors.  Steve's campaign has been grassroots-powered and grassroots-funded, and his leadership in the council will reflect this.  But only if we can get him elected!

Please volunteer for Steve Behar this Weekend!  You can volunteer for Norman Siegel as well!

Canvassing voters is the most effective, efficient way to help Steve get the votes and win!  This is the last weekend before election day, so voter contact is important.
