Across the District, Dems Support Don

When the Democratic Committee of Greene County met last week and voted to endorse Don Barber as their candidate for the 51st State Senate District, it joined the six other counties in the district endorsing Don. Now all seven counties in the district have joined together to support our candidate!

Greene County Democratic Committee members, pictured here with Don, were highly impressed with Barber and his plans for serving the citizens of New York State. They shared a lively discussion, delving in to the current dysfunction of the government, the state of our economy, and alternative sources of energy. With the full support from all seven counties, this campaign continues to gain more and more momentum every day.

Otsego County Dems Endorse Barber

On February 25, the Otsego County Democratic Committee voted to unanimously endorse Don's candidacy for the New York State Senate, representing the 51st district. This vote followed on the heels of a successful fundraiser in Oneonta on February 15th hosted by Don's daughter, Cara Nichols, and her husband Eric Nichols, with over 50 supporters attending.

Schoharie Democratic Committee Unanimously Endorses Barber

Don wrapped up the month of January with a trip east with his wife and campaign scheduler, Rita Rosenberg-Barber. Otsego County was the first stop of the day, where the pair met with supporters and campaign committee members. Their next stop was Greene County, where they were enthusiastically received by the Greene County Democratic Committee. The final stop of the day, in Schoharie County, culminated in the Schoharie Democratic Committee announcing their unanimous endorsement of Don (see below).

Barber Shares Vision with Otsego County Dems

On January 24th, Don Barber and Campaign Fundraising Director, Martha Robertson, met with the Otsego County Democratic Committee in Cooperstown. The energy in the room was contagious as Don discussed the issues facing upstate NY residents, shared his solutions, and outlined his winning campaign plan. In a follow-up email to the event, one energized supporter wrote,

"Don Barber is fearless. Don Barber knows what it is to have a "real" job, and to own and operate a business. Don Barber understands the issues facing our Upstate farmers. Spread the word to family, friends, business associates that Don Barber is running for the New York State Senate. Let's make BARBER a household name. Let's turn Otsego BLUE."

Herkimer County Democrats Endorse Barber

Don Barber picked up critical support at an event on January 3rd at the Thurston Restaurant in Frankfort when the Herkimer County Democratic Committee announced its endorsement of Barber for New York State Senate. The event, organized by Kathy Pumilio, Chair of the Herkimer County Democratic Committee, brought together over 30 Barber supporters, including Congressman Mike Arcuri and members of his staff. Barber and Pumilio are pictured below. The Barber Campaign thanks the Herkimer County Democrats for their support!
