WE DID IT. YOU DID IT. THANK YOU ALL.

There’s good stuff to do, we have an amazing community and now we’ll be able to do it without all of the squabbling,” an elated Nathan said in his victory speech. “We’re going to move Rye along into a really beautiful, climate smart, happy future where neighborhoods are protected.”

The mayoral race pitted two incumbent councilmen who had been strong bipartisan allies on the City Council against each other — and Nathan didn’t lose sight of that in his comments. He called Henderson, 66, his “partner in government” and one of the “finest people I know.” 

“I really have to give a shout out to Bill Henderson,” he continued. “That’s the tough part of this,  because I have so much respect for Billy, and it’s really been an honor and a privilege to speak with him, and it’s a friendship I value and cherish.”
