Aftab Pureval has won the Democratic primary to be the Democratic Candidate for Ohio’s 1st US Congressional District (Cincinnati).

We hope you will join him at a reception on May 14 at 7:00 p.m. in the home of Daniel & Sunita Leeds at 3205 R Street NW in Georgetown, Washington.

Aftab is the County Clerk of Courts.  After a tough race, he became the first Democrat to hold that position in more than 100 years.  As Clerk of Courts, he instituted paid family leave and a comprehensive sexual harassment policy.  Aftab is a former federal prosecutor and has represented battered women in domestic violence clinics.

Aftab is half Indian-American and half Tibetan-American.  He has been endorsed by numerous AAPI organizations.

Suggested contribution levels are: Champion: $2700, Host: $1000, Friend: $500, Supporter: $250.  This is an important race; please give generously.
