Voting Working Families Party means standing with hundreds of thousands of progressive New Yorkers, calling for an economy that works for all of us – not just corporate CEOs and billionaires with super PACs.

The Working Families Party is New York’s progressive party. It fights hard – and often wins. The WFP evaluates the records of all the candidates, and supports the ones who share our values. 

So when you vote on the Working Families Party ballot line, your vote counts for the candidate, but also for the issues that matter. Protecting Medicare and Social Security. Getting big money out of politics. Raising the minimum wage. Stopping hydrofracking. A better, fairer New York.


If you agree that a vote on the Working Families Party line makes sense, here’s how you can help:
  • Click ‘share’ on this image on Facebook to tell your friends you’re a Working Families voter.
  • Take the Working Families Party voter pledge, here.
  • Forward this message to your friends and family and help spread the word. PLEASE!
CBC activists vote WFP not just because we want to win elections, but because we believe in a stronger, more just economy for working class and middle class families. We want a democracy that responds to voters and not just billionaires and super PACs. If you want to make your voice heard for those same values, please join us and hundreds of thousands of progressive New Yorkers in voting on the Working Families Party ballot line.

Many Thanks.
