Almost 20 years ago, Bay Ridge Dems started in the living rooms of Joanne Seminara & Scott Klein. People said we were nuts. We’d never turn Bay Ridge blue. @chrismccreight was there from day one, a driving force behind every race we ran. And now he’s going to Albany.💪🏼

Four big stories that could be coming out of tonight 1) the MAGA rural collapse is wide and deep. These are places that are living the direct pain of intentional decisions by Trump like tariffs and the war. Their sense of betrayal is acute. It’s also the case that rural America has never been as monolithic as the political narrative - which means that there are organizing opportunities ahead. 2) The Supreme Court and GOP have created conditions for a massive black voter surge across the Deep South with their attacks on voting rights. This will finally compel investments from Dems in that political infrastructure. It should also move investments from liberal philanthropy on policy work in places like MS and LA. 3) Latino voters are performing at a rate and with a preference that should make clear that this isn’t simply a “kitchen table” election. The terror these communities have experienced in this age of ICE has created a rights constituency amongst voters who largely stayed home in 2024 4) Corruption isn’t a side issue. Some of us have been shouting about things like banning stock trading in Congress and the White House for at least a decade. Dems and Repubs have failed on this - but the scale of greed in this White House and the lack of accountability in this Congress finally fired up the public outrage and imagination. With consequences. And thus Dems will have a runway for a transformational Ethics Agenda in the new Congress and in 2028.

Mr. McCreight is going to Albany! ✅️ ✅️ ✅️ 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼

Tonight’s victory belongs to all of us. I am deeply humbled and grateful for the trust that the voters of southern Brooklyn have placed in me. The campaign may be over, but the work is just beginning. Thank you. Let's get to work.

It’s such a joyful and monumental night for our country with a new generation of leaders stepping up. It’s a historic night for Brooklyn taking the top roles in the House & Senate! And we have vanquished the last GOP elected officials in Brooklyn. We’re coming for SI ones next!

She had a $1.50 and a prayer. National Democrats gave up on the state and this small business woman and Working Families Party mom was ~200,000 votes shy of making history. Held high, @AngieNixon!

Brooklynites visiting @Gov_Island will soon have a better experience as Yankee and Lima Piers are transformed to expand access. In the meantime, all Brooklyn ferry service to & from the island will be re-routed to Pier 101 until September 2028.

Greenpoint is the best

Anti-Semitic graffiti on our community’s school buses is truly obscene. We are working with NYPD and Shomrim to track down those responsible. The decade-long rise in anti-Semitic incidents must be stopped.

Disgraceful, petty, and deranged. If Trump’s candidate wins, she will own every one of his inhumane policies. Hope this inspires avalanche of volunteers for @AbdulElSayed for final 48 hours. Let’s take back the Senate and our country!
