Dear Lucas,
Well, last night certainly wasn't the result we had hoped for. And it is fair to say we were also disappointed with some of the tactics used, and big money spent in the race.
But what I most want to express to you is my deep gratitude for your support, and to say thank you for all you have done to strengthen democracy.
Thank you for standing with me, thank you for using your words and ideas to build community, and thank you for your vote yesterday.
We will continue the work to reform our government process so that it is open, honest and transparent.
I wish Corey Johnson the very best as he continues in the process to become our next City Councilmember. I know that he has pledged to work with us to restore hospital services for the community. I look forward to working with him on this and many other issues.
And to all of you, I am proud and honored to have worked with you to make the 3rd City Council District the best it can be and look forward to continuing our work to build our community.
In solidarity,
Yetta
