Now that all of the votes have been counted and a mandatory recount has taken place, I want to extend my congratulations to David Storobin on his long-awaited victory in the special election for the 27th Senate District. This victory is a credit to the grass roots campaign he ran and shows that Brooklyn residents are ready to make a fresh, new start.
I expect David to be a strong voice on their behalf and our partner in controlling spending, reducing taxes and helping businesses create new jobs.
I know that Senator-elect Storobin will be a valuable addition to the New York State Senate, and I welcome him to our chamber.
