You can read recent coverage on the campaign from the Upper East Side’s local paper Our Town which said:
“He’s positioning himself as a young voice, a progressive choice, someone who has worked tirelessly, frenetically even, on so many civic issues it makes the résumés of some sitting council members seem paltry by comparison.”
Please also join co-chairs and hosts many of whom you probably already know or should meet at a discussion on redistricting to support my campaign for City Council that has already garnered media attention as unique and substantive. Our special guest is Mark Favors the lead plaintiff in Favors v. Cuomo who is seeking fair redistricting in 2012 to protect democracy and civil rights. This lawsuit is responsible for the new congressional lines and will likely the lines for the New York State Senate.
