Thank You, Plainfield!

I just want to thank my constituents in the Third Ward for their support in Tuesday's primary in making me once again the Democratic candidate for council. I have always tried my best to deliver good representation to you, the people, and I look forward to winning in November and continuing to serve you.

I want to congratulate Rev. Tracey Brown, the county freeholder candidates, Sen. Menendez, Rep. Rush Holt, and certainly our leader, Pres. Barack Obama. Thanks also to Chairman Green and the members of the Plainfield Democratic City Committee who made calls on my behalf. Finally, I want to thank my campaign team--Paul, Rebecca, Carmencita, and our volunteers and, of course, my lovely wife, Amelia, and our two daughters, Shermona and Ayisha, for their support and love.

Regards,

Adrian
