Thanks for All Your Hard Work

Dear Team Vas,

Well, we knew it was an uphill battle from the start. For a while it was really looking like things were breaking our way, but in the end, the strength of the state Democratic establishment, the long-standing political machinery in northern Hudson County pulling out votes for Sires at an unmatchable rate, the challenges in getting a majority of Hudson County residents to accept a non-Hudson resident to represent them, and numerous other factors beyond our control carried the day for the other side.

We put up a good fight though, and did make some headway in cracking the Hudson County machine. I very much appreciate the efforts of each and every one of you who contributed in any way to helping our candidate, and Vas and his campaign staff thank you as well.

I'll be closing down this group soon, so if you haven't already, please go sign up for the Hudson DFA group to stay apprised of our activities and see/make input on what our next project will be.

Sincerely,

Jake Stuiver
