Standing before a packed house of diverse volunteers from all corners of the district , Ed was joined by Councilor Michelle Wu as he thanked his family and volunteers for all their hard work.

In an emotionally moving speech Flynn said " I will be a bridge builder, connecting all of the neighborhoods of this district together.

I will work for additional affordable housing, services for our seniors and veterans, enhanced quality public education and be a friend to those seeking recovery".
