"Viruses don’t take vacations. The longest government shutdown ever puts everyone’s health at greater risk because the data and reports that are essential for monitoring the spread of diseases haven’t been updated for weeks." — me in @huffpost huffpost.com/entry/governmen…

“The story of this is not going to be the greatest thing we ever did was run this campaign.
It can’t be. It’s going to be what we did after we won.”

Celebrate tonight. The work is only beginning. Let’s go!!!
They will insist that this is a
one-off victory — something that can only happen in New York
& nowhere else.
They’re wrong.
New York is the home of Wall Street & billionaires from across the globe.
If everyday people can defeat oligarchs here, we can defeat oligarchy anywhere.
You know you’re doing an incredible job campaigning when people in cities all around the world are posting that they wished they lived in NYC just so that they could vote for you. Let’s go @ZohranKMamdani!
Tom Hanks explains to Stephen Colbert why he masks on the subway:
"I'm doing a play right now so I cannot get sick... I've had COVID enough in my life, I don't need to do that again. So I'm wearing this for health reasons."
Thank you Tom! Masks are a key part of public health.
For once, New Yorkers get to vote for someone who loves this city and will fight for it as much as we do. Don’t fumble this y’all!
