Green Party press release: Green Candidates to Watch in the November 08 Elections

Gloria Mattera

Gloria Mattera's http://www.electgloria.org Green campaign for Brooklyn Borough President qualified for 4 to 1 matching funds from New York City's Campaign Finance program.

"I am proud to be the first Green Party candidate eligible for matching funds for this office," said Ms. Mattera. "This demonstrates tremendous support for our campaign from city residents who are tired of watching [incumbent] Marty Markowitz act as a doormat for Bruce Ratner and other developers who want to take over our city. The Campaign Finance Program levels the playing field for candidates such as myself who do not accept corporate campaign contributions, and is a wonderful tool in support of grass roots democracy."
