Take a closer look at this invite for State Senate candidate Jimmy Dahroug. Jimmy is a true grassroots candidate, endorsed inter alia by NDM, DFA, DFNYC, and a whole host of labor unions, running against an ancient republican incumbent, Caesar Trunzo. The latter has held the seat representing the Third Senate district since what eems like the dawn of time.
What's interesting about his campaign is this: the entire Democratic establishment has now closed ranks behind the insurgent. As host committees go, that's pretty impressive.
Say what you will about New York Democrats: this is a real example of the party embracing the grassroots. I am truly impressed.
