This is a broad political coalition shift for Democrats.

From conservative Virginia to world cosmopolitan New York City, Americans chose our candidates for the right reasons. Now that Prop 50 has been won... Onward to 2026!

"Trump, I've got four words for you: Turn the Volume UP! "

But before and after that...

“We toppled a political dynasty!”

" New York will be the Light."

That New York City will be “Led by an Immigrant!”

his quote from Eugene Debs: “A new dawn for humanity has begun”

to New Yorkers, "Thank you for the opportunity to prove myself worthy of your trust. I will wake each morning with a singular purpose: to make this city better for you than it was the day before..."

and echoing Obama "While we cast our ballots alone, we chose hope together."

and "We won because we insisted that no longer would politics be something that is done to us. Now
it is something we do."
