In order to serve the people of New Bedford, I must conduct an aggressive campaign. My opponents are established perennial candidates with tens of thousands of dollars in their war chests and plenty of inside connections. For these reasons, I feel that I must step forward and offer the voters a choice.
For this campaign to be successful, it's going to require a strong, and organized grassroots organization. Brochures, flyers, yard signs, advertisements, feeding all of the hard working volunteers who are out spreading the message - I can't do it all alone.
That's why I'm turning to the people who best know me and my message and inviting them to get involved in this movement and help make a difference. Your donation of any amount will give me a tremendous boost and help get the message out there that New Bedford and its families want more for their city. We have a huge challenge ahead. I ask for your support, for New Bedford.
I can not thank you enough for taking the time to read my message and share it with everyone you know who wants to make a difference.
