Dear Friends:

The results are in, and we prevailed. While there are still ballots that remain to be counted, our margin of 15% is wide enough that we are delaring victory.

Thank you so much for everything you have done to make this possible. Thank you to everyone who endorsed us, donated generously, knocked on doors, made phone calls, and put up signs. Thank you to my tireless campaign manager, Christina Zirker and my entire campaign team. This truly was a team effort and I couldn't do it without you.

I am honored to be your mayor for four more years and look forward to working closely with you to continue to move Richmond forward.

Mayor Tom Butt
