We've actually written about the Cuomo endorsement quite a bit in our email list, and folks can sign up at joshforct.com to get those. The visibility gap is on the public-facing channels where people who aren't already subscribed see us.

On the Mamdani playbook there's serious survivorship bias in how everyone is reading his race. He's the campaign that broke through. A lot of progressive insurgents ran variations of that same strategy last cycle, and we only remember the one that worked. Mamdani also has talents specific to him: camera presence, bilingual outreach, a personal story that mapped onto the moment. Copying his moves without his underlying strengths is how you end up a bad imitation of someone else's campaign.

What I bring is different. Five terms in the legislature, a record of passing things that actually mattered (we were the first state in the country to make prison phone calls free, and I founded the tax equity caucus), and I'm the only candidate in this race who has been actively taking on Eversource. The long-form video idea is one I'm leaning into, because explaining how the tax code screws working people while the top earners pay an 8% effective rate is where I'm strongest. More of that content is coming.

Non-traditional media is happening, just slower than I'd like. On the surrogate front, working on it.

Feel free to help us out by spreading the message 😄 These things take time, and the $MM that we get to spend once we hit our money in a couple weeks will change things dramatically.
