Congratulations are in order

There is a reason Kevin Byrne was re-elected

A note to all our neighbors: Kevin won re-election for one very simple reason: RESULTS. While we know Westchester is far too blue I was confident that Putnam would pull Kevin across the finish line which it did, though it didn't quite need to. He won the Westchester segment 52-48% and crushed Putnam 61-39%. My condolences to Celeste Theis, Richard Fisher and the others but we prefer a politician who will focus on us, not a Bronx boy pretending to live with his mom to be able to run in this district and buy the election with his dark money. Sorry, truth hurts.

So, everyone, be honorable and congratulate him on a well-deserved victory, then sit back and marvel over what he will accomplish during these next two years.
