OH-16: Keep John Boccieri in the Top Six

Team,

Great news – thanks to your support, John Boccieri is among the top six contenders in an online contest to win an additional field organizer for our campaign.

In order to make it to the final round, we have to keep John in the top six through September 20.

If you haven’t voted for him yet, please visit www.21stDems.org/vote08 and vote right now!

This was such an exciting week for the Boccieri campaign. A rainy weekend didn't stop hundreds of people from showing up to our labor rally in Canton or a house party with Ohio First Lady Frances Strickland.

Our campaign also had a great showing at the Wayne County Fair. Volunteers and staff members gave away over 4,000 John Boccieri for Congress bags to fair attendees. Thanks to everyone who helped out!

With only 54 days left in the campaign, John hosted a “BBQ at HQ” this past Wednesday for volunteers, supporters, and voters interested in learning more.

The cookout was an opportunity for John to thank everyone for their hard work AND to remind us that we still have a lot of work to do knocking on doors, making phone calls, and getting John’s message out in the 16th Congressional District.

Congratulations Keith Strobelt!

This week’s ‘Volunteer of the Week’ is Keith Strobelt. Keith took the lead with our Stark County Field Organizer to get John’s Stark County Fair booth up and running throughout fair week. Keith has also organized our campaign’s outreach at the local football games. Keith stays in constant contact with the campaign and always knows what’s going on in the community.

(I, personally, had the opportunity to caucus with Keith at Ohio's 16th District Democratic Presidential Caucus. He was the number one vote getter in our caucus room. Keith has an exceptionally strong voice and is a great contribution to Team Boccieri. ~ GARoach)
