Last month, I was sworn in as Councilmember for City of Poughkeepsie Ward 8. As a democratic socialist, I believe that government should do more to help working class people. I’ll catch your loose dog, dig your trash can out of snow, and join you in the streets to protest ICE! 🌹

Over 700 people showed up in Chester, NY to protest a proposed ICE detention center. We want money for housing, healthcare, and education, not deportation. Abolish ICE!

I rallied with @mhvdsa.bsky.social at Stewart Airport, where the kidnapped President of Venezuela was flown. Trump is trying to steal oil for his billionaire donors and distract people from the Epstein Files. A majority of Americans oppose this illegal war. We want housing and healthcare, not bombs!

I was proud to spend four mornings picketing with @sbworkersunited.org in Kingston 🪧 Brave baristas across the country are striking for a fair contract. The company makes over $30 billion a year from their labor. Don’t shop at any Starbucks! Sign the pledge: nocontractnocoffee.org

Last week, I visited @socialists.nyc. I joined members at a @sbworkersunited.org picket line, talked to their candidates and incumbents, observed an endorsement forum, and attended a social. The chapter that elected Mayor Zohran Mamdani isn’t slowing down! Join DSA: act.dsausa.org/s/3869.URaPuG

The City of Poughkeepsie Republican Committee sent a lying negative mailer against me. I ran a positive campaign focused on the real issues. People want politicians who will fight for them, not billionaires and big corporations. That's why Republicans lost across Dutchess County!

I'll be an organizer in office, working with you to win change. Together we'll repave roads, replace lead pipes, restore rent stabilization, slow speeding cars, plant trees, invest in public parks, protect our immigrant neighbors, make buses fare-free, and resist Trump's attacks.

Grateful to the voters and supporters who made this victory possible. 120+ volunteers knocked 6,000+ doors. 250+ donors contributed $20,000+ (no corporations or developers). To the people of city of PK Ward 8, I'll always fight for you and put Poughkeepsie Over Profit 🌹

I canvassed for @nywfp.bsky.social candidates Emma Arnoff, Trevor Redl, Alix Winsby and Yvette Valdés Smith. To pass fare-free buses and fund affordable housing we must end Republican control of the Dutchess County Legislature!

Central Hudson is raising our energy bills for 3 years to fund millions in executive bonuses 🤬 Pressure from @mhvdsa.bsky.social and For the Many won a lower rate increase, but I join them to demand a public takeover!

This month I joined a rally to save the Newburgh-Beacon Ferry, marched with 1199SEIU healthcare workers demanding a fair contract at The Grand in Poughkeepsie, spoke at a Good Trouble protest co-hosted by For the Many and @mhvdsa.bsky.social, and attended an Ulster-Dutchess WFP gathering 🏃

Our win, as well as the victories of Giselle Martinez in Newburgh and @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social in NYC, show that voters are rejecting establishment status quo corporate politics to embrace democratic socialism which puts people first. The working class (the 99%) can defeat billionaires!

As a union member, community organizer, and former campaign manager, I know how to bring people together and win. We knocked doors every week since December. We raised over $12,000 with an average donation under $60 (no donations from corporations or developers, all grassroots).

A month ago yesterday, PK Ward 8 said Yes to Atonna! I’m honored to be the Democratic nominee to represent the neighborhood where I grew up. My campaign mobilized 100+ volunteers to knock 3,000+ doors. Thank you to the voters for believing in me. I’ll fight every day to put Poughkeepsie over profit!

I’m running a clean campaign for Poughkeepsie Ward 8. Sadly, my opponent (who ran for office as a Republican 6 times) is using Trumpian tactics to attack me. I’ll stay focused on the issues that matter to residents. Voters will reject negativity on 6/24 🗳️ danielforpk.com

I’m asking for your vote to be your Poughkeepsie Ward 8 Councilmember. As a community organizer, I helped pass a city law regulating short-term rentals like Airbnbs. As a candidate, I’ve mobilized 70 volunteers to knock 2000+ doors. Vote early June 14-22 or on 6/24 🗳️ danielforpk.com
