Saikat Chakrabarti for Congress

Thank You

I know this isn’t the result we hoped for. To everyone who poured your time, your energy, your blood, sweat, and tears into this campaign: thank you — and I’m sorry. I wanted to win this for you, and for this city, more than anything.

But I’m not sorry we did this — not for one second. We took on Nancy Pelosi, the establishment, and more than five super PACs funded by billionaires and special interests, and still ran a clean, people-powered campaign and built the largest field operation in San Francisco history.

The reason I got in this race hasn’t changed. To beat not just Trump but the reason he’s in office, we have to wrest the Democratic Party back from the corporations and put it in the hands of people. That takes a movement — and together, we’ve started to build one. So my ask is simple: stay in this fight with me. I’m not going anywhere.
