Look what we built together
In a matter of months, a campaign powered by volunteers and neighbors took on the machine — and proved a different kind of politics is possible in Assembly District 90. This is where it begins, not where it ends.
Stay with the movement
What we proved
We didn't have the machine. We had each other — and we came closer than anyone said we could. More than 2,000 neighbors stood up for new leadership, volunteers gave nights and weekends they'll never get back, and on Election Day we fought the establishment to a near draw. That doesn't disappear when the polls close.

To everyone who knocked, called, gave, and believed —
We set out to do something this district was told couldn't be done: build a real, people-powered campaign and take it straight to the machine. We did exactly that. We didn't win this seat, but we won something that lasts — a movement, a coalition, and proof that this community is ready for new leadership.
I am so proud of what we built together, and I'm not going anywhere. Stay close. We're just getting started.
