  • This morning, on the first day of Early Voting, and as we approach Election Day, I’d like to share something that’s been on my mind. If I had been on the County Legislature in 2022, I would never have voted for the aquarium. That is a major policy difference between myself and my opponent. The aquarium was supposed to cost $85 million. Now it’s projected to cost over $100 million. The aquarium was supposed to open this summer. Now it’s slated to open to the general public sometime in November.

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
