I had a great time at tonight’s meet-the-candidates event hosted by the Lexington Urban League Young Professionals and CivicLex!

As with every other public forum throughout this campaign, my opponent failed to attend.

#EmmaForLex #Election2026

Lexingtonians want better roads, a fair shot at a good life, and elected officials who put the work in.

They don’t want gerrymandered council districts, sexual predators in public office, or elected officials who don’t show up for work.

Griffin and I are endorsing each other!

We’ve already worked together to make our streets safer, our neighborhoods stronger, our parks more usable, and our city more joyful.

Council is a team sport. No one person can do it alone and we’re lucky to have each other in it.

#EmmaForLex #GriffinForLex

I didn’t just make campaign promises—I’ve been delivering real results to make life better for all Lexingtonians.

I show up and I do the work.

With the election 40 days away, I’m proud to share a list of 40 accomplishments I’ve made in my first term (so far…)

#EmmaForLex #Election2026 #Lexington

Lexingtonians have been living through a period of collective trauma as a result of recent shootings.

I will always show up to support my neighbors who’ve been impacted and I will never stop fighting to end the scourge of gun violence.

#EmmaForLex #EndGunViolence #MoreThanThoughtsAndPrayers

I was blessed to spend #LaborDay with colleagues and union leaders from across our city and commonwealth who are fighting for working people.

Whether it’s on the picket line or in the halls of government, I will always stand shoulder-to-shoulder with them.

✊💙

#EmmaForLex #SolidarityForever

I’m running for re-election to serve my neighbors. My opponent is only running to serve herself.

Can you chip in today to help us prove that Lexington wants service-minded, results-driven leaders—not self-serving wannabe career politicians?

Our campaign has been endorsed by @runforsomething.net!

That’s how I’ve led in my first term. It’s how I’ll lead in my second term.

Friends, we just built the first ever mini-roundabout in Lexington right here in the 4th District!

I ran for office on a promise to fix our roads and make them safer for everyone through innovative multimodal intersection design.

I’m proud to be delivering on that promise.

You could say my first term has been #KindaChic so far… 💅

I’m honored to be recognized as a 2026 Principled Candidate.

Many in politics, including in this race, choose to sow fear, spread conspiracies, and cast doubt on our elections.

On our campaign, we are leading with integrity and upholding the principles that make our democracy strong.

#EmmaForLex

I’m humbled to be recognized as a Mental Health Now Candidate.

From sponsoring our city’s Mental Health Court to ensuring mental health services are available to folks of all backgrounds, I’ve worked hard to improve the mental health of our city.

And I’ll keep at it in my second term.
