Personal account in which I speak for myself rather than for the federal government. Government account: @RepRitchie. Campaign account: @RitchieTorresNY.
I am honored to be the people’s choice for the Democratic nomination in NY-15.
I am proud to represent the Bronx, which is a microcosm of America itself: a multiracial, multiethnic, multireligious democracy. We are Black and White, Latino and Asian. We are Jewish, Christian, Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu. We are One Bronx.
More meaningful than the victory itself was how we achieved it: by securing a supermajority of the vote with a multiracial, multiethnic, multireligious coalition of working families from every corner of the Bronx.
It is the honor of my life to be a fighter from and for the only home I have ever known. Even when I leave the Bronx for Washington, the Bronx never leaves me.
