Statement from Mike Khader:

I want to extend my deepest gratitude to everyone who supported our campaign and our tireless volunteers, generous financial supporters, the Hispanic Democrats of Westchester and the Westchester Putnam Building and Construction Trades. I would also like to thank the many Yonkers residents who believed in our message and our vision for the city. Your dedication and belief in our efforts truly meant everything to me.

While we did not come out on top in the June 24th election, I am proud of the campaign we ran and the issues we brought to the forefront.

I’d also like to congratulate Lakisha Collins-Bellamy on her re-election as City Council President, and to commend the Yonkers Democratic Party for rallying behind her and choosing the candidate they felt was best suited to lead. I hope President Collins-Bellamy puts Yonkers residents first as she enters her second term, and I wish Chuck Lesnick a speedy recovery. 

I remain committed to working toward a better future for all who call Yonkers home.

Thank you again for your unwavering support. – Mike Khader
