Check Out Sean's blog entry at The Albany Project

I could not have put it better. Sean laid out the case for reform in Albany and why this is the year to do it. Check it out at http://www.thealbanyproject.com/showDiary.do?diaryId=3502. Pass it along. It's a great piece about this race, and the history behind this race. Paul Newell is a viable candidate and this race is not impossible.

The Capitol Article

Our campaign just got written up in The Capital, the article focused on the dynamic of the race and the difficulties that faces the challengers. Paul came off as cool and nerdy, which is exactly the kind of nerdy chic we want him to be(he's really more nerdy then chic). The ending of the article was great, Paul is too cool for school(not really, he's just too cool for Stuy).

Ross is out for the day due to whatever he ate while watching the Celtics Victory last night.
Evan is awaiting friends from out of town, ever the gracious host.


Cougar for Newell design is done, just need to find a t-shirt producer.

Thanks DailyPolitics

The Daily News' political blog just posted our entire M1-5 event invite for Paul Newell,on their website. Interesting that they picked it up because Arthur Leopold is one of our event hosts.

Kudos to the staff for coming up with creative names for ticket prices. It did take about half an hour to knock it out of all of us. What can i say, creativity from this bunch comes only at the last minute.

So the NY Sun Story about Luke Henry didn't pick up any traction and its been three days.

Stay tuned, I will be posting pics from house parties soon, and our big big big fundraiser at M1-5, with the Shivers!! if you want to come, drop me a email at Alex@newellnyc.org.

Big Press Day, But Not For Us.

The New York Sun just did a story on our race today, or more specifically on Luke Henry, another reformer running against Sheldon Silver. Two reactions. One, the story is completely unfair to Luke, b/c I think Luke is running for the right reasons. Two, OMIGOD, Luke Henry just got called a spoiler by the NY Sun. Obviously these are personal reactions. I hope the Henry camp are dealing with it well.

Here's the story:
