SULLIVAN  WILL NOT PAY A LOT  FOR CONGRESSIONAL SEAT
 
 
Joseph P Sullivan, of Albany, Democratic candidate for Congress, 21st District,
said, today:  "like the man in the Midas muffler ad, Sullivan will not pay a lot for
the 21st Congressional District seat being vacated by retiring Representative
Mike McNulty".
 
Sullivan does not intend to raise or spend more than 1,000 dollars on his campaign. He will file an in lieu of statement with the State Board of Elections
at the required times(s).
 
Sullivan is not seeking the backing of any special interest groups. 
 
Sullivan said "if voters want campaign reform, and they want term limits, I am
their man".
 
Sullivan expects the media will provide him, and the other candidates, with ample time and space to communicate their messages to the voters. All the voters have to do, is take the time to compare the candidates and their platforms, then vote  for the one who best represents the views and interests, of the voters.
 
Sullivan  said he has a more complete and comprehensive campaign platform than any of the other contenders, including: Tonko, Brooks,  and Darius.  All three are political insiders.
 
 
The Democratic Primary will be held, Tuesday, September 9, 2008. Polls will be open Noon to 9 pm. Absentee balloting will be available.  The last day for new voters to register and enroll to vote in the primary is August 15, 2008. Contact
county boards of elections for details and application forms.
 
Sullivan said primary voter turnout will likely be very low, perhaps less than  12
percent of the eligible Democrats. So, every vote will count!
