Community Endorsers:
More than 250 community leaders from within my 51st District. Representing all 22 neighborhoods of my district, this network is by far the largest group of local endorsements of any candidate in the race, exceeding all my opponents' combined local support base. Among my more than 1,000 donors overall, helping me to raise more than $250,000, I have more in-district donors (exceeding 250) than all my rivals combined. I also have the most in-district dollars raised (more than $50,000) of any candidate for the open seat in my 51st Assembly District. Rather than relying on PACs, corporations, or interest groups, my campaign is fueled by people. More than 90 percent of my total dollars raised are from individuals. My only "boss" is and will be the voters of our district.
