Skaller Council Campaign Kicks Off Summer With "SkallerThon"

The Josh Skaller for City Council campaign will exercise its grassroots muscle this weekend by launching "SkallerThon." On Saturday, Josh Skaller will join supporters in a bike ride through the district, starting and ending in Carroll Park; meanwhile, over 40 volunteers will knock on more than 3,000 doors. The bike ride will start and end in Carroll Park, and will feature stops at several local events in route. Contact the campaign for a full itinerary. SkallerThon will highlight the grassroots nature of Josh Skaller's Council campaign. The Skaller campaign has over 200 volunteers and more donors than any other City Council campaign in Brooklyn. Skaller was the first candidate in the race to refuse money from lobbyists and developers. Josh Skaller, a community organizer, is past president of the Central Brooklyn Independent Democrats, a field director of Democracy For New York City, and co-founder of Brooklyn for Barack. A Democrat, Skaller is running for the City Council in Brooklyn's 39th District, which includes all or parts of Park Slope, Carroll Gardens, Windsor Terrace, Kensington, Boro Park and Cobble Hill. Public events such as debates and forums are only the tip of the iceberg. Press is invited to attend to get a sense of the true grassroots nature of the Skaller campaign.
