We Broke a Record; Please Help Us to Continue
Team McCray is approaching our second month of the campaign and things are looking great because of your support. Thank You!
By establishing relationships and broadening our supporter base, last Saturday’s segment of Team McCray’s “Listening Tour” was the most successful yet. We broke our record for volunteer participation, having had 15 volunteers join us, which allowed us to knock on more than 300 doors in the East Rosemont and Glenham-Belhar communities. Click here to view photos.

Among Saturday’s team of volunteers was first-time canvasser Tyquan Henson, who recently graduated from Baltimore Polytechnic Institute and plans to attend Allegany College in the Fall. In the middle of the summer, at the age of 18, there are so many things this Frankford community resident could chose to do. However, he not only walked the streets with Team McCray this past Saturday, he has already committed to participate in additional canvassing excursions throughout the duration of the campaign.
Tyquan wants to make a difference in his community, and I know you do too. So, join us this Saturday, July 20th, as we knock on doors in the Waltherson community and listen to residents.
While we are happy to report a successful week of canvassing, please continue to do your part to spread the word about Cory’s campaign for delegate by forwarding these weekly e-mails, sharing the website, www.electcorymccray.com, and inviting everyone you know to “Like” the Facebook page.

We want to continue to break our records for volunteer participation, knock on more doors and engage more constituents, but we need your help. As Helen Keller stated, “Alone we can do so little; together we can do so much.”

The Power is Within the Community
I hope everyone was able to enjoy the holiday weekend as much as Team McCray did.
For the 6th week of our “Listening Tour,” we had 12 volunteers join us as we knocked on approximately 200 doors in the Rosemont and Glenham-Belhar communities this past Saturday. Click here to view photos.
While listening to neighbors on Walther Avenue, Cory met a female resident and her six-year-old daughter. After a very extensive conversation about education, the 45th Legislative District mother expressed her commitment to support Cory and made a significant contribution to the campaign.
Without having to pull out the grill, offer an incentive or attempt a firework presentation, Team McCray was able to pull together a group of volunteers who were supercharged and ready to share information about Cory McCray this past holiday weekend. The team, which included a volunteer who traveled from Prince George’s County, was so enthusiastic that they continued canvassing the neighborhoods and spreading the word about the campaign for an additional two hours.
However, Saturday’s volunteers and the Walther Avenue resident weren’t the only ones to make their support known recently. Maryland Juice blogger David Moon published a post discussing the campaigns for which he has made contributions so far and the reasons why he supports these candidates. Of course, Cory McCray was one of two candidates named. To read the blog post in full, please go to http://www.marylandjuice.com/2013/07/q-who-did-maryland-juice-blogger-david.html.
If you feel inspired and would like to join Team McCray as a volunteer this upcoming Saturday, please contact 443-520-2611 or info@electcorymccray.com.
As we continue to lay the foundation over the next few months, please do your part to spread the word about Cory’s campaign for delegate by sharing the website, www.electcorymccray.com, and inviting everyone you know to “Like” the Facebook page.

Happy Independence Day!
Happy Independence Day! As you prepare to celebrate this fun holiday with family and friends by attending parades, cookouts and firework presentations, I thought I would extend my sincere appreciation for your support in my efforts to represent the 45th Legislative District in the Maryland General Assembly.
I officially launched my campaign for delegate with the “Listening Tour” just a month ago, alongside family, close friends and early supporters, in the North Harford and Arcadia communities. Every Saturday since then, Team McCray has canvassed neighborhoods within the 45th Legislative District, knocking on more than 1,000 doors to hear from concerned constituents.
Now, five weeks into the campaign, Team McCray has gained substantial headway, exceeding every expectation. While we are extremely excited that our hard work has been fruitful, we plan to use this foundation as motivation to continue to grow this grassroots campaign over the next year.
Last Thursday, several of my closest friends and colleagues hosted the first major fundraiser in support of my campaign for delegate at Clementine in Hamilton. Hosted by Baltimore City Councilmember Brandon Scott, Anthony Jones, Stuart Katzenberg, John Bullock and Shannon Sneed, the well-attended fundraiser was a great way to conclude the first month of the campaign.
Additionally, the campaign continues to gain momentum as early supporters host small “Meet and Greet” events, where I am able to connect with community members in a small setting, listen to their concerns and share my vision for the 45th Legislative District. So far, it has been a true pleasure to meet so many people as I crisscross the district. I would like to continue this energy throughout the next year, but I need you in order to do so.
Please continue to spread the word about my campaign for delegate by sharing the website, www.electcorymccray.com. While you’re on the Internet, “Like” the Facebook page and encourage others to do the same.
We are doing so well, please help us continue on this path to victory. Team McCray is counting on YOU!

Can’t Stop, Won’t Stop! Cory McCray for Delegate
In just a couple of minutes, a few Baltimore trailblazers, including Baltimore City 12th District Councilman Brandon Scott, will come together to host Cory’s first major fundraiser. While fundraising is an important aspect of every campaign, Team McCray’s focus has been and will remain on listening to his neighbors and hearing their thoughts and concerns about the direction of the 45th Legislative District.
Each Saturday this month, Team McCray has walked the streets, knocked on hundreds of doors and listened to neighbors. Gaining a pulse and accessing the needs of the individuals, businesses and communities within the 45th Legislative District is Cory’s main objective over the next year. After all, how can he effectively represent the district without understanding the constituency he serves?
This past Saturday, while out listening to his neighbors with his wife and daughters, Cory met a retired gentleman in the Glenmount community who had concerns about resources for seniors. As Cory listened, this neighbor expressed confidence in having a strong, young and vibrant leader to advocate on his behalf in Annapolis. Interactions like this fuel Cory’s drive to continue his listening tour throughout the 45th Legislative District.

As we prepare for the fundraiser this evening, Team McCray needs you to spread the word about Cory McCray for Delegate. Please tell your neighbors how Cory has helped you and your family, impacted your community and volunteered at your children’s school. Then, share the website, “Like” the Facebook page and encourage others to do the same.

We Are Making A Difference
Week 3 has been pretty exciting for #teammccray, this week we spent a large amount of time in Westfield and Hamilton Hills communities canvassing and getting to know the neighborhood. With the redistricting plan ready to take place, all of the folks that we canvassed this past Saturday will be joining the 45th Legislative District. Most people expressed their concerns and issues, were excited that #teammccray knocked on their door, and showed a great deal of interest in hearing about the newly redistricted precincts. While knocking on doors we were able to meet past community presidents Julie Lin and Jason Sullivan of Hamilton Hills, current Hamilton Hills officer Joe Stolkovich, and many of their neighbors.
After the 1st Shift #teammccray decided to take a break and head to the Oliver Community’s Fun Day. It was great to see 45th District families enjoy the day with neighbors and friends. It was so much fun that one of the residents dared Cory McCray to show off his Hula Hooping skills, check out the picture here.
These past three weeks #teammccray has been actively campaigning have been amazing. We have heard neighbors state that they are excited that someone is here to listen to their concerns, get a good grasp on the issues, and have the energy to knock on their door and ask them personally for their vote. Check out some all of the pictures from week 3 here
Last, Cory was able to enjoy father’s day with his wife, and two little girls Kennedy (6) and Reagan (4). The Baltimore Afro Newspaper circulated an article “Fathers and Sons Opine About Dads’ Day” written by Zachary Lester where Cory was quoted about “How much father’s day meant to him”
“When my little girls, Kennedy and Reagan, entered this world, the true meaning of life was defined for me. My decision-making became centered around protecting and ensuring a better future for my children and all children of Baltimore City. “– Cory McCray
We hope that you can join the movement and like our Facebook Page, follow us on twitter @electcorymccray and, finally, sign up for our You Tube Page, where every week we highlight a community member that endorses our campaign.

It’s Never Too Early, Get on Board Now!
Team McCray has been gaining momentum over the past couple of weeks. In addition to canvassing neighborhoods in the 45th Legislative District, Team McCray has held three small “Meet and Greet” fundraising events, two in Baltimore and one in Silver Spring.
To view photos of these events, as well as of Team McCray knocking on doors and listening to constituents, please click here.
Campaign Manager Terrell Boston-Smith hosted Cory’s first fundraiser at Spirits of Mount Vernon on June 3rd, which set the tone for victory by exceeding the monetary goal. Next, on June 9th, David Kunes and Jonathan Shurberg of Montgomery County brought together approximately 50 friends to host the second fundraiser in Silver Spring, where Senator Roger Manno of District 19 officially endorsed McCray for Delegate.
Earlier this week, Field Team Manager Jermaine Jones welcomed several of his neighbors from the Oliver community into his home for Cory’s most recent “Meet and Greet” event. Check out the photos from these events here.

Coming to a Neighborhood Near You, Look Out for Cory and Team McCray
This past Saturday, Team McCray officially hit the streets, knocking on doors and engaging residents of our beloved 45th Legislative District. Check out photos from Saturday’s canvas here.
Team McCray, which included Baltimore City Councilmember Brandon Scott, approached the doors of more than 300 homes in the North Harford community, as well as stopped by the Arcadia community’s annual street festival to intermingle with neighbors.
As Cory took time to listen and chat with numerous community members throughout the day, one neighbor’s support was loud and clear. After addressing her main concerns, this recently married woman requested a lawn sign for her home, as she expressed considerable comfort in having a young, family-oriented role model represent her family and community in Annapolis.
As Team McCray continues to beat the streets, we need your support. Volunteers are the driving force of this campaign. Please visit the website, www.electcorymccray.com, or call (443) 520-2611 to see how you can help. Also, forward this message to at least five members to help build this grassroots movement. This campaign’s success is dependent on your support.
Since I know you understand the importance of having a strong advocate, such as Cory McCray, to unrepentantly represent the interests of you and your neighbors of 45th Legislative District, please spread the word, share the website, “Like” the Facebook page and encourage others to do the same.
While your willingness to volunteer and help spread the word is invaluable, a small donation of $4.50 would help Team McCray tremendously. Please send donations by clicking on the “Donate” button below or via U.S. Postal mail to:
