FYI
Some people on this Forum balk at paying $20 for a council candidate's fundraiser.
Consider this
Fourth Ward Councilman Mike Ray is having a fundraiser on Thursday, April 16.
Cost = $50
Which leaves out all but the wealthiest of Youngstown residents.
If he's that desperate for funds, there is always the Cafaro clan to fill his coffers. Plus Old Man Betras could always go through his cliant base to generate a pile of greenbacks. Oh, and there are the Yorks to hit up for a couple of thousand.
Appearant ly he is not a shoe in that he thought he was in his eyes. He is running scared.
He had two fundraisers already and each was very well attended.
The councilman has many yard signs out in the fourth ward.
I haven't seen a single sign for the man running against him.
Mike is using this opportunity to raise money.
Doward has no chance of winning
If Mr is a shoe in for this office. Why is the need for a campaign war chest?
