Nevertheless went into our budget season 66 million in the hole and so we still have to make difficult decisions. But excited about where we came out. You know, the mayors budget of 8. 6 billion focus on a lot of things and i think he prioritized a lot of great things in his budget.

I think the power of incumbency, my belief is that its tremend
