Bellavia for New York; updates
Our buddy, David Bellavia, has decided he’s going to make a run at the Congressional seat in New York’s 26th District without the support of those fatass GOP dorks in Rochester. He just told me that in recent polling he’s ahead by two points in a four-way race to be held on May 24th.
There’s one road block, however. He needs 3500 signatures from voters in his district on a petition by Sunday. The 26th District Includes All of Genesee, Livingston and Wyoming Counties and parts of Erie, Monroe, Niagara and Orleans Counties. If you live in the district, won’t you PLEASE get your grubby hands on a petition from his website. If you don’t live in the 26th district, he can still use your money.
Yeah, I’m begging because for some reason, VoteVets just isn’t coming through for him…but they’ll support draft-dodger Harry Reid. Go figure.
I’m thinking about making a road trip this week to force my former homies to sign petitions. So if there’s anyone who wants to make a road trip and you have a wonderful boss like mine who’ll give us some short notice leave time to help a friend, we’ll coordinate. It’s worth missing the hippie convergence in DC.
Nothing would make me prouder than to have New Yorkers elect Bellavia Congress. Andnothing would make me happier than to stick our collective finger in the collective eye of those fat GOPers in the 26th District.

Damn; wish I could go with ya, Jonn. Nothing would please me more than to send a hearty FUCK YOU to the establishment assholes in the GOP.
Good luck, David!!

Ditto!
Kills me 1) I don’t live there so that I can sign the petition and vote for Dave and 2) that I can’t make the roadtrip with you to help with the petitions. THANK YOU for going Jonn. Give Dave a hug ‘n kiss from me.
Hey Jonn? Suggest that Bellavia set up a phone bank, they work bro. There’s more than one way we can help him, think NY 23rd CD Race and how close it was….hehe! Phone bank….
“…nothing would make me happier than to stick our collective finger in the collective eye of those fat GOPers in the 26th District.” – Useless oxygen thieves that they are …
Amen, brother!!

I’m bringing some folks up from Long Island Early Thursday Morning. We’ll be working an area they need help with in the SE corner of the district, starting at Dansville and working our way up toward Batavia over two days. You’re welcome to join us there. I have the petitions, clipboards, etc…

Jonn can I use photos from your flickr account to illustrate a story about David?
streetsweeper-excellent idea. I’ll be MORE THAN HAPPY to make calls at my own expense from where I live. Jonn, tell Dave to send me a list and a script of what he wants said.
DanNY – thank you all so much for going and helping!
No worries, PC
We supported David in 2008 and we support him today.
Nothing’s changed.
