Between now and Election Day I will be touring various parts of the district and you’ll have the opportunity to meet me and get to know me who could be potentially representing you if elected in 2024. I will be posting a schedule of where i’ll be on what dates this way if you’d like to get to know me you’ll know where i’ll be at. I will also be posting the campaign rallies schedule once those are set up. 

The period to collect signatures to get on the ballot is right around the corner. For independent candidates such as myself the period to collect signature starts on April 16  and ends on May 21 with May 21-28 being the timeframe to file with the Board of Elections. As an independent congressional candidate I need at least 3500 signatures in order to get on the ballot. I plan to exceed the 3500 threshold and collect as many signatures as I can between April 16 and May 21. 

The more signatures I collect the better and will increase my likelihood of being put in debates which are crucial in elections. It is crucial that the people of the district get to hear from each of the candidates running in the race and where each candidate stands on each position. I would like to partake in any debate in which I am invited to attend. 

I plan on driving around to all areas of the district including areas such as Huntington which is currently a part of NY-01 but will become a part of NY-03 in the next Congress and the Shirley-Mastic-Moriches community which is currently located within NY-02 but will once again be a apart of NY-01 in the next Congress. 

With that being said I will be putting together a tentative schedule as to when I will be in each parts of the district. While I am in each part of the district I will be introducing myself to fellow NY-01 constituents that don’t already know me, stopping by various spots within the area I plan on touring that day and collecting signatures for me to appear on the general election ballot. Please note that the schedule is tentative and is subject to change. If there are any changes I will make everyone aware of it.
