RICHMOND, Va. (WRIC) -- Mayor Levar Stoney held a press conference with mayor-elect Dr. Danny Avula on Wednesday to talk about the future of Richmond ahead of a change in leadership. The press conference was held at Richmond City Hall at 2:30 p.m. on Wednesday, Nov. 6, and featured Stoney welcoming Avula into his projected position of mayor -- as unofficial results predict his election win and other top candidates conceded. "This is a bright spot for us in the capital city," Stoney said. "To elect a leader that will write the next chapter of our city." Before opening up the floor for questions, Avula assured people that more information about how the change will be handled will be released shortly. "In the coming days, we'll put together our transition team," Avula said. "We'll be releasing those details very soon, but now it is time to get to work." When asked about his plan to convince those who didn't vote for him, Avula assured Richmond residents that he would be a mayor for all. "Whether somebody cast a vote for me or not, I am absolutely going to be a mayor for all people of Richmond," he said. "And so the work moving forward is making sure that people feel that, and making sure that I get out in the community, that I connect with people that are in all parts of our city and that I continue to share the message that resonated with the other percent of folks that did vote me into this office -- that I really am here for the thriving of all people of Richmond." All election results are unofficial until certified.
