Jim and the campaign had a great time at Sparklebration at the Pasco County Fairgrounds for the Fourth of July celebrations. It was a great success and we would like to thank everyone who came out and showed their support.

The campaign is also warming up as we get closer to November. The Jefferson Jackson Dinner will be held this weekend in Hollywood, Florida and the Piccillo for Congress campaign will be there with fellow Democratic candidates promoting Democratic success in Florida in November. 

The campaign is also growing everyday. There are now offices in Pasco and Citrus counties, and soon to be more in Hernando and beyond!
