Dear Lucas,
With just over two weeks until election day, we're hitting our stride.
The Queens Chronicle just endorsed Eric Gioia for Public Advocate. Here's what they had to say:
"Eric Gioia knows how everyday middle-class New Yorkers live for the simple reason that he is an everyday middle-class New Yorker. . . . Gioia's biography is the perfect example of how a strong work ethic and positive values can propel a person forward in society even while he works for the greater good of his neighborhood, borough and city. His story and the priorities he has pursued as a councilman make him the perfect choice to be the city's next public advocate."

To keep moving forward, we need your support. We have an important fundraising deadline on Monday at midnight, and in order to have the necessary resources, we need to reach our online goal of raising $12,000 by the deadline.
One way to help is by joining us at our next event on Monday, August 31st, 6:00-8:00pm at Donovan's Pub (voted Best Burger in NYC!), 57-24 Roosevelt Avenue in Queens.
You can RSVP online at www.EricGioia.com , by email to sarah@ericgioia.com , or by calling 718.706.5090.
All of Eric's events are pay whatever you can, even $10, and every contribution makes a big difference. The city matches contributions up to $175 with a 6-to-1 bonus, so a $50 contribution turns into $350, and $175 nets the campaign $1,225!
And even if you can't join us at Donovan's, your support by the Monday night deadline is extremely important.
Please click here to contribute $10, $20, $40 or $100 today!
Thank you again for all of your support. By working together, we will win in September, and make our city a better place.
Sincerely,
Team Gioia
