"Over the last four years, I have worked closely with Dennis Vacco, who I can call my friend and long time colleague. I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate him for the years he has dedicated to public service at the local and state level. Dennis has been instrumental in many cases regarding New York City, most recently on bringing the tobacco case forward, and in fighting on behalf of New York City.
Now that the election results have been decided, I look forward to meeting and working with Attorney General - Elect Eliot Spitzer -- most immediately, to continue the hard work of the Attorney General's Office to ensure that New York City gets treated fairly."
