Yesterday, we won.
We ended last night with a 58% majority, winning by more than 26 percentage points.
Neighborhoods across Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Queens resoundingly elected a 27-year-old socialist Latina to office.
Thanks to you, our movement beat more than a million dollars in money meant to stop us.
Our collective victory showed that our power as democratic socialists isn't just safe, it's growing.

Today at midnight, we have our first and by far our biggest filing deadline. 🧵
We have just over 12 hours to prove that working people have power in numbers, power we can beat an entrenched ruling class with.
There's a lot of money in this race, and all that money (and public information like where it came from) will be on the table after tomorrow.
