Election Day was just the beginning. On Thursday, DSA electeds @votejivan.bsky.social and @votealzubi.com rallied in support of @32bjseiu.bsky.social union workers organizing for a fair contract with Harvard.

Proud to stand with Harvard custodians & security workers from @32bjseiu.bsky.social in their fight for a fair contract.

Cambridge residents rallied alongside the Harvard community when it was attacked by Trump.

If Harvard wants Cambridge to have its back, it needs to have the back of its workers

The election results are a win for housing & childcare affordability, safer streets, and being a welcoming city.

And I’m committed to making sure they are a win for working people in Cambridge.

I’m so grateful to everyone who made our 1st successful re-election campaign possible.

Thank you!

We did it!

Thank you to everyone who made this win to keep fighting for an affordable, inclusive, and sustainable Cambridge on the City Council possible.

I’m so grateful to every person who knocked doors, wrote postcards, donated, talked to friends & family, and voted

I ranked you #1 to help assure victory!

2 hours till polls close at 8pm!

More great conversations with voters—

The signature collection for 2026 ballot measures on rent control & state legislator stipend reform leading to great discussion about tenant protections & good governance!

Great conversations with voters at the Morse and Peabody Schools about the City budget, the charter update, local businesses, and affordable housing!

If you care about housing & childcare affordability, safer streets, sustainability, and protecting immigrant residents, I’m asking for your #1 vote.

Let’s bring this home and keep fighting for a Cambridge that works for all of us

Today is Election Day! Polls are open until 8pm.

I’ve never been successfully re-elected before—I lost my last re-election by a handful of votes. I’m hoping to change that today

Of course! Glad it’s been helpful

I was just in the protected bike lane on Hampshire St yesterday! Thank you!

With SNAP shutdown looming, Cambridge civic partnership offers $500,000 - Cambridge Day The City of Cambridge is partnering with the Cambridge Community Foundation and the Cambridge Food Pantry Network.

Sobrinho-Wheeler [said] in an email after the press conference “As the Trump administration is using food for kids all over the country as a political bargaining chip in the government shutdown, Cambridge is stepping up to launch an emergency fund for residents.”

Began the day by running down the last of my Ward 4 lit and then walked up to Cambridge to canvass for @votejivan.bsky.social and do some rent control signature collection

#CambMA It's personal for Jivan!

For me? I stopped urban biking 50+ years ago but I really, really don't want another bike death in my fair city!

Thank you for all you've done for safer streets, and so much more

Creating safer streets is personal for me.

If the Cycling Safety Ordinance is allowed to finish by 2027, we’ll have a citywide protected bike network.

I’m running for re-election to make sure it does, so we can keep making streets safer for residents

Despite losing two teeth in a bike crash in Cambridge, I was lucky.

More than a dozen cyclists & pedestrians have been killed in Cambridge in the past decade

In 2018, I lost part of two teeth in a bike crash in Cambridge.

Two years after my crash—in my 1st term on the City Council—I introduced the 2020 Cycling Safety Ordinance.

It’s added miles of protected bike lanes—including on Hampshire St, Mass Ave, and Brattle St.

The only bad costume is no costume. Thanks for coming!

Beautiful morning to join the Peabody School Bike Bus for their Halloween ride to school with the School of Honk band!

I came as a City Councillor 4 days before an election who didn’t have time to plan a real costume.

Lots of volunteers there from @cambbikesafety.bsky.social

A true supporter of affordable housing in Cambridge - Cambridge Day A Cambridge voter's argument for a particular candidate.

Margaret Brady has been a leader in the work to create a Cambridge Community Land Trust.

It's been great working with her over the past couple years.

And she wrote an amazing letter in support of my campaign in the @CambridgeDay

Thanks to @theharvardcrimson.bsky.social for covering my City Council campaign earlier this month!

I'm excited to keep fighting to make Cambridge a welcoming and more affordable place in light of Trump’s attacks on our communities

Looks like the rain may spare us, and HONKoween is looking good to go!

Want to see a marching band, five City council candidates, and like 100 elementary school kids parading through our #CambMa streets on bikes? Join us along the parade route Friday morn, 8:10-8:25am!

I lost my first re-election to the Cambridge City Council by a handful of votes.

If housing & childcare affordability, safer streets, and sustainability are issues that matter to you—

I’m asking for your #1 vote by 11/4!

Congresswoman @ayannapressley has been a champion for housing justice, transportation and safer streets, and childcare.

I’m proud to have her endorsement!

Rank @votejivan.bsky.social #1! I am!!
