Victory, Reported

Felicia Lyons claimed a decisive victory last night, riding a campaign of housing, renewal and civic optimism into office as supporters filled the steps outside City Hall. Fireworks followed the result, along with promises that New Atlas had chosen “hope over cynicism” and a government prepared to deliver for those the city has left behind.

The celebrations were briefly interrupted by individuals attempting to approach police with material said to concern the Vincenzo investigation. Officials declined to comment, and the campaign said it was unaware of any matter requiring a response.

By midnight, the speeches were over and the headline was already written. I’ll check the headlines again tomorrow.
