Friends,

As many of you know, last night I was elected to the Cambridge City Council.

I would first like to thank each of you. Without your support, time, friendship, and vote, this would have never been possible.

I'm happy to have won the election. I would like to congratulate my fellow councilors and also the challengers. It was a well-fought campaign, and I was privileged to take part.

It took a lot of hard work, but it was worth it. I enjoyed meeting voters throughout Cambridge and learning more about our great city and its people.

Now that it s over, I ll prepare to take office in January, representing you, and working on the issues I ve been talking about on the campaign trail since the summer: early childhood education, housing options, and the environment.

Also, next week we will be having a victory party. We ll fill you in on details soon.

I hope you will stay in touch, and contact me to let me know your concerns and your thoughts as we enter the next stage together.

Regards,
Sam
