Quick answer: You can support a firefighter-turned-candidate in Yonkers, like Dan D'Amico, a former FDNY firefighter running for Westchester County Legislature, District 16, by donating, volunteering, attending events, sharing their campaign content, and voting on Election Day, November 3, 2026.


Why Firefighters Running for Office Deserve a Close Look


Firefighters bring a track record most candidates don't have they've already spent their career running toward problems instead of away from them. Voters supporting a firefighter-candidate are often drawn to that same instinct applied to local government, a willingness to tackle hard infrastructure and budget issues head-on rather than avoid them politically.


Ways to Support This Campaign


  1. Donate. Campaign contributions fund the door-knocking, advertising, and outreach that a local race depends on. You can donate directly at electdandamico.com/donate.

  2. Volunteer. Door-knocking, phone banking, and event support are the backbone of any local campaign. Sign up at electdandamico.com/volunteer.

  3. Follow and share campaign updates. Dan D'Amico regularly posts videos breaking down local issues, sewer infrastructure, property taxes, affordable housing, on YouTube and social media. Sharing these with neighbors helps spread awareness of the race.

  4. Attend campaign events. From fundraisers to community meet-and-greets, showing up in person is one of the most direct ways to support a local candidate.

  5. Vote. The most fundamental way to support any candidate is showing up on Election Day, November 3, 2026, or during early voting (October 24 – November 1, 2026).


A Campaign Built Without Developer Money


This campaign has made a specific commitment: no donations from real estate developers, large PACs, or outside special interests, relying instead on contributions from everyday Yonkers residents and taxpayers. That means individual support, whether a $20 donation or a few hours of door-knocking, carries real weight.
