We started this year with a new president who was an avowed critic of the district, and we had to reset that relationship.
What got us there was imprudent decisions fiscally, so we had to work out of that.
Starting with the most recent elections, where we had just really a good turnout and great wins for Democrats in New Jersey and Virginia and New York City, the next 10 months are going to be different than the last 10 months.
We’re really not that long away from being governed by a control board.
