“I’m still going to be focused on things like public safety and neighborhood quality of life, but we will continue to fight for Binghamton’s families, our hard-working small business owners, and the people that make Binghamton go,” he said.

Kraham said he’s “proud” to serve the city. He thanked voters, volunteers, and donors for their support.
