DAVID PECHEFSKY CAMPAIGN
FOR NYC COUNCIL - DIST 39
ELECTION DAY IS LESS THAN
ONE WEEK AWAY….THIS IS IT!!
Election Day is LESS THAN ONE WEEK AWAY and we could still use
more volunteers. Even if you can’t work the entire day, please
consider coming out for one or both of the most crucial shifts:
from 6 to 9 AM and/or from 5 to 9 PM or if you have a few hours
during the day, anytime late morning - late afternoon. We will
have a new brochure to hand out, showing people where to find
David on the ballot! Please let me know when you can work by
contacting Jonathan at jonathan@pechefskyforcitycouncil.com,
especially those of you who live in district and would like to work
at your own polling site.
Do you know someone who needs a ride to the polls? Let us know
because we have a volunteer with a seven-person van who is willing
transport people.
One Last Chance For Weekend Lit Drops!
This Sunday we will be handing out literature at the J. J. Byrne
and Carroll Park Farmer’s Markets from 1 to 4 PM. We will also be
lit dropping in Carroll Gardens at the same time. Please let us know
if you can help out. This is your LAST WEEKEND to help the campaign!
And One Finale Debate to Attend
Thursday, October 29 at 7PM
This debate is sponsored by the Food Coalition along with other
community groups. Topics to be covered include health, sustainability,
school food and curriculum, expanding access to healthy food, social
justice for food workers and consumers and local healthy food sources.
The debate takes place at PS 10 (7th Ave & Prospect Ave) in Park Slope.
This is your final chance to hear David go up against Democrat Brad Lander
and Republican Joe Nardiello.
Internet Ads
We’ve made an internet ad purchase so people in district (with the following
zip codes: 11201, 11204, 11215, 11218, 11219, 11220, and 11231) should be
seeing David pop-up on their screen. Please email david@pechefskyforcitycouncil.com
if you see the adds!
David Scores Favorably in Two More Past Debates
Blogger Katia Kelly gave David a thumbs up for his performance at the Carroll Gardens
Neighborhood Association Debate. “I felt like Goldilocks,” she writes. “One candidate
was too angry (Republican Nardiello), one was too smooth (Democrat Lander), and one was just right (Green Pechefsky).” Read her entire coverage at:
http://pardonmeforasking.blogspot.com/2009/10/democrat-republican-and-green-candidate.html
And several of us were also on hand last Thursday night at the Central Brooklyn
Independent Democrats (CBID) meeting as David and Brad Lander discussed issues
pertaining to the workings of the city council and fielded questions as to what
they would do differently if they were elected. This is David’s milieu, of course,
and although once again the tone was congenial, it was clear to everyone in the room
that David was the more knowledgeable candidate.
And Don’t Forget the Halloween Parade!
We still need volunteers for the Park Slope Halloween parade to be in the parade and
to help make costumes and change David’s pedicab into a pirate ship!!! (We’ll park
the ’ship’ at the end of the route for the whole parade). The theme is ’spooky seas’
and we want to collect clean recyclables because we’ll have a polluted sea theme as
our ’spooky seas’. The parade is on October 31 starting at 6:30 from 7th Ave & 14th
Street and ending at the Old Stone House (5th Ave & 3rd Street). Please let me know
if you can help by responding to jonathan@pechefskyforcitycouncil.com

REV. BILLY TALEN CAMPAIGN
LESS THAN A WEEK TO GO!
Two-termers,
We are in the final strech of our campaign now! We want to invite
you to some wonderful events that will round out our last full
week before election day.
This Thursday we will be at Washington Square Park with the NYC
Climate Action Group and Rain Forest Relief. We will bring to tragic
life the use of tropical rain forest hardwood in our parks and put
some pressure on King Mike to be the environmental mayor he says he
is — dress like an animal or wear furry clothes (but not real fur,
of course)! Meet between the arch and the fountain at 5:30!
Shortly after this action, come to a House Party at the Torn Page Salon
on 22nd Street at 7:00pm. There will be food, drink, and much singing!
This Saturday is our big Zomberg Rampage event! We’ve got all the info
for you (including line-up location and time) at voterevbilly.org/events/halloween.
It’s not too late to get involved with us! Email zombies@voterevbilly.org for more info!
Also this Sunday, Nov. 1 is our grand finale show Hot Democracy at the Highline
Ballroom. Rev. Billy and The Life After Shopping Choir will be putting the odd
and back in God and the neighborhood back in the city! Tickets are $12, click
here to order them online. Doors are at noon, and the show starts at 1pm.
