From an email that has been sent out to registered Republicans in the area  Thanks to Brian for sending this to me :wink: )
Quote:
Our 2003 Mayoral campaign has begun with more excitement and momentum than I could ever hope for!
I can report that we have raised over $2 million in our first two weeks.
The Philadelphia Inquirer headlined the story, "Katz's Donations Rivaling Street’s", and reported:
"The first returns in the 2003 Mayoral race are in, and it appears to be a tight contest between Mayor Street and Republican challenger Sam Katz."
- Philadelphia Inquirer 2/3/03
Under the headline, "Katz's Mayoral War Chest Now Tops $2m," the Philadelphia Daily News reported:
"Republican mayoral candidate Sam Katz has already raised more than $2 million for his quest to unseat Mayor Street, quickly pulling nearly even with the Democratic incumbent
in the money race."
- Philadelphia Daily News 2/3/03
We are assembling staff, setting up a campaign HQ, and I will be formally announcing my candidacy in the next several weeks.
I am committed to uniting and mobilizing the most diverse and broad-based coalition that Philadelphia has ever seen. So far, over 500 people have volunteered to help, representing every neighborhood, ethnic group and political party. We welcome everyone in the City to join us. As a leader and active member of the Philadelphia community, you understand the challenges that face this City. Together, as one team, one Philadelphia, we can restore the momentum we once had.
Campaign HQ is at the United Plaza Building, Suite 1610, 30 South 17th Street (between Chestnut and Market Streets), 215-SAM-2003. We want you to know our door is always open to you.
Please feel free to forward this to your friends and associates.
Sincerely,
Sam Katz
