Craig Johnson, Victory Party

On February 6th, 2007 a special election for NY State Senate's 7th district was held.  It was a long, hard and expensive fight to win this seat. The pictures below are from the victory party held at 9PM immediately after the election. I am dedicating these pictures in the honor and memory of Barbara Johnson, Craig's mother who was a Legislator and candidate herself.
