MIKE EDELSTEIN FOR ORANGE COUNTY EXECUTIVE
Help a green Democrat prevail in a pace to save Orange County, New York


Mike Edelstein has spent the past thirty five years teaching sustainable planning and other courses relating to people's relationship to the environment, 31 of them at Ramapo College of New Jersey, where Mike heads the Environmental Studies Program. Mike has also spent the past thirty years as an environmental activist fighting the toughest battles for a sustainable Orange County, New York, most of it as head of the non-profit Orange Environment, Inc. Mike also conducts active research on things that really matter. Mike is known world wide for his work on the psychological effects of environmental contamination; see his latest book Contaminated Communities, 2nd Edition (Westview Press, 2004).

Given Mike Edelstein's strong Democratic and Union credentials, Mike won both the endorsements of the Democratic and Working Families Party.

Now Mike Edelstein has to win on November 8. The only thing standing in Mike's way is an incumbent Republican holding a voter registration edge and a half million in his war chest. Having beaten both the mob, big industry and big government in environmental battles, Mike Edelstein figures that with some young political talent at Mike's side, Mike can win this battle too. Early reaction on the street says if Mike can mount an aggressive campaign, Mike Edelstein will prevail.

Come help MIKE EDELSTEIN make this a successful campaign. Mike Edelstein is looking for all talent for work big and small.

Contact Scott Thornton, Chairman
Friends of Michael Edelstein, 845-282-1624.
Look for mike4Orange.com by August 1

Bea Gonzalez
Syracuse city council president: "Serving by listening to you."


This is a call for any young dem to volunteer in an important campaign in Syracuse.

My name is Adam Bushey and I just joined the Young Dems about 6 months ago. I have been very involved in politics in CNY and I am now the campaign manager for Bea Gonzalez. She is a wonderful woman, and the first Hispanic to win an election in Onondaga County. She is currently running for City Council President and she has a tough race ahead of her.

She championed the City Earned Income Tax Credit and helped a living wage be passed in Syracuse. She works with the community and not above it. I had opportunities to work with several candidates for different positions, and I choose to work with Bea because I think she is in it for the right reasons.

Please e-mail if you are willing to do any work on this campaign. Helpful work can even be done in a satellite fashion.

To volunteer contact:
