Campaign Update Newmarket-Aurora: Day 4
We are now into the fourth day of the campaign and as I walked into the office tonight I was quickly reminded that there are only 35 days left to voting day. Lawn sign requests are coming in like crazy and our sign team is working very hard to fulfill them as quick as possible. Global TV was in our office yesterday interviewing Lois Brown. She stayed very positive and on message. The national campaign is going well and has been very supportive of our efforts locally thus far. Today we launched a new website at http://www.loisbrown.ca and I think it looks great. As always Lois has been out knocking on doors. After two years I think she is pretty close to hitting every door in Newmarket and Aurora. We are very lucky to have a candidate who works so hard. Lois deserves to be our MP and we are going to work very hard to make sure that happens.
Today Stephen Harper was speaking in the riding of Eglinton-Lawrence near Yorkdale mall. The event was very well attended and I thought Harper's message was very strong on the economy and foreign affairs. It looks like we are starting to see progress in the GTA finally. I give full credit to Kara Johnson and Karma Macgregor who work tirelessly to organize events like these while at the same time providing excellent support to our local riding association and campaign teams.
After four days I think things are looking good for us both locally and nationally. Of course we can not allow the polls to reduce our efforts. We have to run this race on all cylinders right up until polls close on October 14.
