20
00:01:04.000 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 4>big as other major cities, our economy and the people

21
00:01:06.760 --> 00:01:07.840
<v Speaker 4>here are the best in the world.

22
00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:09.519

32
00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:28.959

33
00:01:28.959 --> 00:01:32.159
<v Speaker 3>our stroller with us for the baby. So you're carrying

34

66
00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:45.800

87
00:03:57.319 --> 00:04:01.120
<v Speaker 2>two million dollars, but have taken different to get there.

88
00:04:01.479 --> 00:04:05.960
<v Speaker 3>It's a blatant attempt to buy a job with the

<v Speaker 3>family and their connections.

90
00:04:08.599 --> 00:04:12.240

92
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:19.920
<v Speaker 7>has in her campaign war chest after three and a

93
00:04:19.959 --> 00:04:21.079
<v Speaker 7>half years as mayor.

94
00:04:21.360 --> 00:04:24.079
<v Speaker 5>I knew when we got into this I would be

95
00:04:24.120 --> 00:04:27.120
<v Speaker 5>an underdog. But I know we have a chance because
