This campaign proved we can challenge the status quo with integrity, grassroots power, and a vision rooted in love for our city. While we came just shy of a runoff, we’ve built something transformative—a movement that will continue to shape Austin’s future.

I am proud of the volunteers, staff, and voters who made this campaign a force for change. Though the campaign is closing, the work isn’t over. I will return to organizing, my life’s work, ready to build on the momentum this campaign has sparked.

Let’s keep building, Austin. This is only the beginning.

Given that results are unofficial at this point and the margin is so small, I am waiting to see an official tally from the three counties to declare a position.

It is misleading for the mayor to declare that he won by a margin of 104,000 votes, when in reality, he is avoiding a runoff with a margin of only 14 votes and more ballots to count tomorrow.

We owe it to Austinites who have made it clear that they want new and accountable leadership, to ensure that every single vote is accurately counted and every voice is heard.

Good afternoon, everyone.

First, thank you to all who have stood by and checked in! We want to share a quick update on where things stand:

The race remains incredibly close, with the incumbent avoiding a runoff with just a few dozen votes, and thousands of ballots still awaiting analysis. Official results haven’t been declared, and a runoff is still very much on the table. We may not have a final answer for a few days—or even early next week—as counting wraps up.

We’ll keep you updated as soon as we know more about what’s next.

In the meantime, please remember to take care of yourselves and stay connected with loved ones. Enjoy this beautiful weather. These are challenging times, and your well being matters. Thank you all for your support and commitment to building a better future for our communities.
