The waiting game is over. In the Parker Administration, government will move at the speed of business.
At @ChamberPHL, I was proud to unveil PHL PRIME, a new initiative built to quickly elevate and resolve regulatory and permitting issues for major economic development projects that will make sizeable investments in our city and generate hundreds of quality, good paying jobs for our residents.
These potential high-impact projects should not be delayed by a maze of City processes. And the work of cutting the red-tape to bring economic opportunity for all Philadelphians now has a new set of champions, starting with the Mayor’s office.
In Philadelphia, data is the force that drives us forward.
We’ve achieved @BloombergDotOrg and @Results4America's Silver @WhatWorksCities Certification for our commitment to using data for improved services and a higher quality of life for all.

The polls are closed! I'll leave the tracker running for you to get in your last submissions. But let's consider this our ~final estimate. The tracker thinks we landed just above 2020 turnout (confidence interval is 713,000 - 979,000).
Thank you all for a wild ride.
Good morning, Philadelphia!
I’m excited to embark on this incredible journey as your new Mayor!
Honored to serve and work to build a safer, cleaner, greener city with economic opportunity for all.
Check out today’s swearing-in. #OnePhilly https://t.co/VB2pDeMV48
Mail ballots must be RECEIVED by your county board of elections by 8 p.m. TODAY. Ballots received after that time, even if postmarked before the deadline, WILL NOT COUNT.
If you have not returned your mail ballot and you want to vote in person, you have two options:
1. Bring your ballot packet, including the outer envelope, to your polling place to be voided. You can then vote on your county’s voting system; OR
2. If you don’t have your mail ballot, you can vote by provisional ballot at your polling place. Your county board of elections will verify that you didn’t vote by mail before counting your provisional ballot.
The tracker is live!
As of 8am, I estimate that 30,000 people have voted in person across the city. Submit your vote to https://t.co/mUF9uDXsBd
