Our campaign was one based on the issues that face Long Island and the state of New York. We presented real and workable solutions to a broad range of issues; from revisiting the way we fund education, addressing the crisis in mass transit, the needed reform in Albany, and the creation of jobs for Long Islander’s. I believe that those who looked at our message understood that we were suggesting a better direction for this great state. I am very proud of this campaign, and the manner in which it was run. This was not a campaign based on smear tactics, but rather hard-core facts and solid issues. Thank you to all of my family members, friends, and campaign volunteers for making this possible. Thank you to the thousands of people who voted for me. Thank you to the Democratic and Working Families party for the nomination. In defeat we are motivated to carry on for a better New York.
Thank you!

Open Letter from John to the 19th District
Dear Neighbor:
I am a candidate for the New York State Assembly in this Tuesday's elections. I am running for the Assembly because I know that communities like Seaford have been underserved by Albany, particularly when it comes to state aid for education. My ties to this community date back to its earliest days when my family, the Verity's and the Southard's, first settled in Seaford. I love this community and have served as Chief of the Seaford Fire Department and Vice President of the Seaford Board of Education.
Today we are providing you with a copy of Newsday's Endorsement in which they acknowledge that the incumbent "Dave McDonough is a good guy. But John Brooks is just the kind of person we need more of in Albany. Newsday endorses Brooks". The endorsement highlights some of the key proposals I have made. We have run a campaign with limited funding and will be outspent by a 20 to 1 ratio, but we have run a campaign of real solutions. People understand we have the right ideas. This election is not about Republican v. Democrat. It is about your future, your taxes, jobs, mass transit and real workable solutions for improving our lives.
I ask for your vote on Tuesday so we can start in a new direction with someone in Albany who is not there to represent a political party or special interests but rather to represent YOU -- the tax payer and my neighbor.
Thank you for your vote and support,
John
