The NYU College Democrats

Tuesday, March 31st (tomorrow as I’m writing this, probably today by the time you read this) there is a special election in New York’s 20th Congressional District to fill Senator Gillibrand’s vacant seat in the House of Representatives.  The Democratic candidate, who the NYU College Democrats warmly endorse, is Scott Murphy.  Scott has a proven track record of creating good paying jobs in upstate New York by investing in small businesses, which are the lifeblood of our economy.  Scott will work hard in Congress to help President Obama spur our economic recovery and he will work to find the common sense solutions to our problems.  We all know that the President’s economic recovery plans will save and create jobs and rebuild our outdated infrastructure; Scott Murphy will fight to bring those jobs and infrastructure projects to the people of his district.

If you live in the 20th CD, we urge you to go to the polls and vote for Scott Murphy.  Polls are open from 6 am-9 pm, and you can find your polling location by clicking here. Special elections tend to have low turnout, so every vote matters and you can the difference, either by voting for Scott Murphy if you live in the district or by making Get Out the Vote phone calls on the 7th floor lounge of Kimmel from 2-7 pm on Tuesday. Every little bit counts, so stop by even if you can only stay for 20 minutes. Can’t make it to Kimmel to phone bank with friends? That’s okay, you can call from home by going to dccc.org/ny20.

Let’s get out there and win this election!
