Frank Raia thanks the voters

Dear Editor:
I am writing to convey my heartfelt appreciation to all those who took the time to vote on November 3rd. Thanks to your significant show of support for me, more than 2,600 voters
cast their ballots for my Mayoral candidacy.
While it was not enough to win, we certainly sent a strong message to the administration in City Hall. Accordingly, I am extremely proud of the issues that we raised, and the principled positions on which we campaigned. We sought to bring old and new Hoboken together so as to provide a better and more fiscally sound future for all of the residents of our city.
And while I congratulate our newly elected Mayor on her victory, I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who supported my campaign in any way. I am deeply grateful for the trust and confidence that you placed in me, and pledge to continue to represent and uphold your interests whenever our values and concerns are at stake.
You have truly honored me with your votes, and I sincerely appreciate the time and energy that so many expended on behalf of my candidacy. We can all hold our heads up high, because we campaigned tirelessly for the over-burdened taxpayers who live in Hoboken, and for the City that we all love so much.
Thank you again from the bottom of my heart.

Frank Raia
