Matthew Ahn Campaign Needs Help Saturday
On Saturday, January 6 the Executive Committee of the Cuyahoga County Democratic Party will be gathering to vote on whether they will be endorsing a candidate for Cuyahoga County Prosecutor in the March 19 primary election.
This is a significant vote as if someone receives the endorsement, then they will be given access to additional resources from the local and state Democratic Parties. The campaign’s data shows that they CAN block an endorsement of the incumbent, or prevent 60% or prevent 60% of Executive Committee members from voting for the incumbent.
To help guarantee this, the Friends of Matthew Ahn campaign needs a substantial crowd of supporters present to show their support for Matthew and pass out additional literature to arriving Executive Committee members to ensure they vote for Matthew
Please arrive at the Independence Holiday Inn, located at 6001 Rockside Rd., Independence 44131 at 9 am on Saturday, January 6 Registration for Executive Committee members takes place between 9 and 9:45 am, with the meeting beginning at 10 am
