Manhattan Fundraiser for Jimmy Dahroug for State Senate
Jimmy Dahroug came within a hair's breadth of winning this State Senate seat in 2006 with very little money or support from the state party. This time around he is raising money like crazy and his chances of winning are high. In 2006 Jimmy Dahroug's race was one of the two closest State Senate races in the state...which means if we want to win those two seats that keep Joe Bruno able to block real governing of New York Jimmy's race is one of the ones we have to win.
The time I met Jimmy Dahroug was at a fundraiser where Jim Dean himself (Howard Dean's brother and head of Democracy for America) introduced Jimmy. You can read about my first meeting with Jim Dean and Jimmy Dahroug here.
I have agreed to join the host committee for a fundraiser for Jimmy Dahroug on Wed. Jan 9th. And here is YOUR invitation to join us in supporting this excellent candidate:

Turn out for Jimmy
I've known Jimmy for a few years now, and can attest that he is a true progressive voice, and would be a tremendous addition to the state Senate. If the party's state senate committee had supported him in '06 (instead of backing someone who had contributed $1,000 to the Republican incumbent two years earlier), Jimmy would almost certainly be in Albany already.
I hope to see many of you at the fundraiser on Wednesday.
Dan
