Indivisible endorses Jason with 58% of the vote! CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE JASON RITTEREISER.

David,

 

It’s Jason here. I wanted to make sure you saw the most important news of the race so far: we won the only straw poll of voters in the 8th district with 58% of the vote! I am incredibly humbled by this outpouring of support and want you to know how much it means to me.

 

This victory secured the endorsement of the coalition of six Indivisible groups in our district -- and mobilized hundreds of dedicated activists for our campaign. These activists have been among the most engaged in the race so far, and they voted for our campaign by a 16 point margin.

This endorsement is huge news, David: With the support of Indivisible and the organizing power of our grassroots campaign, we have the momentum on our side.

 

Now we need to make sure that our winning message reaches every voter in the 8th. If we’re going to flip this critical district in November, we have to build on this momentum now.

 

Thanks for all your support,

Jason

What we’ve been up to this weeK. CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE JOSH WELLE.

Hey David,

Team Welle has been all over the district this week meeting dedicated members of the community.

Here’s where we’ve been:

Saturday, Josh spent the morning at the 29th Annual Pilgrim Baptist Church Community Breakfast in Red Bank. Great, uplifting music and wonderful fellowship

Sunday, Josh met with the renowned activist group Girls on the Bus in Spring Lake to discuss the challenges facing CD4 voters.

Josh did a Facebook Live Tuesday Town Hall with Zachary Dougherty, local high school student-activist who's helping to coordinate the official NJ March for Our Lives in Newark, Red Bank, and Asbury Park.

Josh attended Taco Tuesday, a meet & greet hosted by the Neptune City Democrats.

It’s been a busy week, with an even busier one ahead.

Thanks for all your support!

Up next on CNN: The OH-7! CONGRESSIONAL CANDIDATE KEN HARBAUGH.

I just wanted to make sure you saw the team’s email. Ken was on CNN this week -- you should check it out. We are working hard here at Team Harbaugh to run a different kind of campaign – one that engages with every voter. Our volunteers are out on the doors and here on the phones, and listening to what Ohioans need most.  Watch the clip. Share it.  Let’s give everyone the chance to hear Ken’s call to serve. In service, Matt Dutko Comms Team Team, Did you see Ken’s CNN interview with Ana Cabrera last night? They talked about how the OH-7 is the next PA-18. Ana even calls Ken “Conor Lamb” at one point.  The wave is real. And Ohio is the next battleground. Watch the clip. Share it...send a new generation of leaders to Washington—leaders who will put Country over Party, Service above Self, and fight for Opportunity for All. Leaders like Ken.   In service, Team Harbaugh

Hi David,

 

March has already been a busy month on the trail and I wanted to catch you up on what we’ve been doing on the ground here in NY-19. 

 

Thanks to your support my campaign has been crushing our petitioning goals and we’ve amped up our field program this month. People across NY-19 have been helping us organize and collect petition signatures to get me on the ballot. Here are some of my favorite moments from March so far:

 

 

We started collecting signatures on March 6th to get my name on the ballot. I love this shot of our Field Director Brit prepping packets for volunteers. I’m lucky to have such an amazing team working with me and recruiting volunteers everyday. 

 

 

Our team even got my parents out making calls to support my campaign. I couldn’t ask for two better people to be on the phones talking me up. 

 

 

Speaking of our awesome team, this is Ciara, Alexis, and Max before they went out to smash our petition goals. I LOVE Alexis’ shirt. It says it all, “No more thoughts and prayers, policy change now.” 

 

 

I met Noelle after a forum in Hillsdale. She was standing outside in the parking lot when I was leaving with a handmade sign around her neck to let people know she was petitioning for me because she thinks I’m the only one who can beat Faso. This was one of the coolest moments of the campaign for me so far!

 

 

Here’s me at Indivisible Chatham New York’s CANDI-DATING event in Ghent. Really appreciated the chance to connect with small groups of voters up close. 

 

 

Conor Lamb won his special election in PA and my friend Seth Moulton gave me a shout out in a discussion with The New York Times about how my campaign can replicate Conor’s win in our tough district. I’m fired up!!!

 

 

Alexis and Caroline from Team Ryan stood with Planned Parenthood Mid-Hudson Valley Action at Faso Friday to demand our representatives protect women's health, especially crucial Title X funding.

 

 

While collecting signatures, I knocked on a door looking for a 19 year-old Democrat named Luke, but his dad Matt, a Republican answered and spoke with me anyway. He told me he didn’t care about political parties and that he cared about getting rid of politicians who only look out for themselves instead of doing their job to represent the people. 

 

We have a major opportunity to win this year-- folks across the country are tired of what’s happening in Washington and they want a leader who will have the courage to drive change. Having the chance to talk with voters like Matt is one of the best things about canvassing. 

 

Thanks to everyone who’s been petitioning, canvassing, phone banking, coming out to events, and donating to our campaign. The momentum on the ground is strong. This is our moment. I can’t do this without you all.

 

How can you help? We're looking for volunteers to carry petitions for us to make sure we're on the ballot. If you're interested, reach out to our amazing Field Director Brit atBrit@patryanforcongress.com.

 

Thanks for stepping up -- together, we're already making NY-19 a better place.
