Governor-elect Kounalakis released the following statement to her supporters.
“Thank you.
This campaign was driven by one powerful principle – listening to voters across California and pledging to bring your stories, and your priorities, to Sacramento.
As California’s Lt. Governor, I will fight hard every single day to build an economy that works better for everyone. I will fight to protect our environment for future generations, and to make public higher education affordable, so that more families can walk the same pathway of the American Dream as I have.
Together, truly, we did it. Now, let’s get to work building a better, stronger California.
In gratitude,
Eleni”
