49.1%!
Wow, what a story. Against impossible odds, with no one in the press or anywhere else giving us a chance of getting any votes, our Campaign for Change is the story of Election Night -- winning 49.1% of the vote and coming within 0.9% of winning against Ben Lujan Sr.
The votes are still officially being counted, and we will make sure that the voice of the people who stood up for change is fully heard and that the election is fair and honest by monitoring the process all the way to the last provisional ballot, making sure that every one of your votes is counted. We may not win officially, but we have already won in doing what they told us couldn't be done (but that we all knew was possible all along).
What fantastic thing we've all done together.
