While we’d LOVE to see leaders like @PeteHarrisonNYC and @VoteAshcraft in office, in 2020 we recommend GND co-sponsor Carolyn Maloney. Curious why? Read on in thread
In 2019, @CarolynBMaloney co-sponsored the GND for Public Housing, crucial for district residents. In 2018, she was among the 1st to support AOC’s call for a GND Select Committee equipped with subpoena power.
Now she chairs @OversightDems. She has near unilateral subpoena power!

Some allies see Maloney as ‘establishment.’ Us too, but we’ve also had good experiences partnering with her at forums & advocating for #CancelRent. We’ll relentlessly push her to expose fossil fuel billionaires determined to set the planet ablaze. We’ll turn engagement up to 11.
TBH our choice has much to do w/ a well-heeled challenger. He’s unacceptable, but has gained momentum in recent months. He’s a hotel magnate who has raised 3x more $$ out of his home state of Indiana than in NY 
Why not try to flip a seat in Indiana where all your donors live?

@surajpatelnyc has too much $ and recognition among voters. It feels like most know Ashcraft and Harrison, but we suspect this phenomenon is due to time spent among allies. We don’t want Patel to win!
Further, when others united around saving lives & agreed not to petition for ballot signatures, Patel kept at it. When Ashcraft, Harrison, & Maloney jointly called him out, he lied & claimed he was the first to stop!
Beyond an honesty problem, he lacks clear convictions

Suraj Patel began this race with a paid poll asking residents: should I run as an ‘AOC Democrat” or a moderate?
Oh yeah, and there’s this frankly gross behavior: https://bit.ly/2Yu6nzW
