Last weekend Matt spoke at the Washington County Democratic Committee Annual Picnic, attended the Upstate NY Wounded Vet Run in Brunswick, and knocked doors in Herkimer County with Mohawk Valley Indivisible. 

This week Team Castelli kicked off our town hall series with our first Town Hall in Otsego County. Unlike Congresswoman Stefanik, Matt Castelli will always show up to listen and discuss questions that matter most to you and your family. We'll be doing in-person town halls in all 15 counties of NY-21 between now and election day - keep an eye on our newsletter and social media to find out where we will be next!

Calling All Team Castelli Supporters, the Campaign Needs Your Help!

As you all know, the Castelli campaign, unlike like Elise Stefanik, is a grassroots campaign that depends on members of our community to flip NY-21 blue! This means we're all hands on deck and we need your help:

We need help phonebanking to make sure people know about the upcoming primary. With early voting starting next weekend - now is the time to get involved with calling your neighbors and friends to turn out the vote! Sign up here: https://www.mobilize.us/castelliforcongress/event/483135/

We are currently looking for supporter housing for full time campaign staff in the District. Specifically, we are looking for supporter housing in Clinton County. However, if you can't house campaign staff, please consider letting us use your backyard for a canvass launch. In addition, we are looking for a printer and paper donation. Please contact Nora Matti, our Deputy Field Director at [email protected] if you are able to help! 

And help us in spreading the word about Castelli and our upcoming primary on August 23rd by following our social media accounts!

August 1, 2022, Emily Russell "NY21: Castelli says he's the moderate Democrat to defeat Stefanik" 
Stefanik has also gained notoriety and power since the last election. She’s now the third-ranking Republican in the house. But Castelli says he sees a path forward for his campaign.

“I’ve been sitting with Republicans, talking with Republicans. We’re doing that right now and they’re coming on board to our campaign because they’re interested in our message which is: let’s push back against this divisiveness, let’s push back against the extremism that we’re seeing, and return to the middle.”

Looking Ahead

With only 96 days until Election Day in November and only 19 until the August 23rd Primary there is no time to waste. Get involved today by reaching out to [email protected]
