It has been almost exactly two months since I announced my campaign for the Legislative District 9 seat in the Arizona House.
Except for being down with a cold bug for a few weeks in October, I have been busy talking with supporters and Democratic Party stalwarts- at LD9 Meetings, the Democrats of Greater Tucson (DGT) Awards Luncheon, Pride in the Desert, Arizona Democratic Party State Committee Meeting and the Arizona Democratic Progressive Caucus Meeting in Flagstaff. I really appreciate the opportunities to speak at the LD9 meeting in October and at DGT in November.
Even though we haven’t done a major fundraising push yet, I’m happy to say that I have raised $1000 of the $4000 allowable seed money for Clean Elections Candidates and collected 100 of the 400+ signatures that I need to get on the ballot.
Now that the local 2015 election is over, canvasing operations and fundraising will be stepped up.
