"Well this was a great win, but it was primarily to a great campaign and all the hard work that they put into it," says Jordan.

Now Jordan ready continue doing exactly what he's been doing since 2008.

"Now we have a balanced budget," says Jordan.

He says the budget-- balanced for the first time since 2000, and that will only continue in Fayetteville.

"I love this city, I believe it's so diverse and diversity is really our strength."

"I want to thank the people of this great city for giving me 4 more years," says Jordan.
