Join LID and New Kings Democrats for: "Street Fighters: How to Win an Insurgent Campaign in New York City"

This was sent to me by Lambda Independent Democrats:

If you're curious about the future of grassroots organizing, down-ballot online politics, or the next crop of Brooklyn progressives - join us!

Lambda Independent Democrats of Brooklyn is partnering with New Kings Democrats for a panel discussion about just how these Brooklyn street fighters took on machine boss Vito Lopez - and won.

Hear (newly elected) District Leader Lincoln Restler, Campaign Manager Sarah Baker and Field Director Chris McCreight. They will explain what precise mix of new media and old-school canvassing techniques worked - and what grassroots campaigners can learn from their experience.

When: Friday, Nov. 12th, 6pm

Where: Spike Hill, 184 Bedford Avenue, Brooklyn, NY
Take the L Train to Bedford Ave.

The bottom line

The advice basically comes down to three things:

  1. Go up against a corrupt incumbent;
  2. Have a positive message of change; and
  3. Out-hustle your opponent.
