A little bit late, but just so honored to be a part of The Post's election coverage. Some amazing journalists, engineers, product and production teams all working seamlessly together despite being physically separated. Just in awe of what we accomplished together. A thread.(1)
I personally had the honor to help lead the Design and Project team — who managed every twist and turn of the past week with their usual grace and creativity. They worked seamless across platforms to contribute to the newspaper, website and our social accounts. (2)
Here’s some more examples of their contributions and collaborations, starting with Sunday’s newspaper (4)

This remarkable reconstruction piece published an hour after Biden's victory. How Trump’s erratic behavior and failure on coronavirus doomed his reelection. (5) https://www.washingtonpost.com/elections/interactive/2020/trump-pandemic-coronavirus-election/?tid=ss_tw
This oral history of the fight to remove Trump — told exceptionally in print and online. Voices from the fight: An oral history of the four-year movement to defeat Donald Trump. (6) https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2020/elections/trump-opposition-oral-history
Another great collaboration — this time between Design, Engineering and Product — to create this hub for Elections. A popular destination for Post readers the past week. (7)

Extremely grateful to @benkirchner who illustrated our candidate portraits again this Election. These are a hallmark of The Post visual identity for the Election and we put them to use across our suite of products. (10) https://twitter.com/benkirchner/status/1325125971716964357?s=20
And to @michaelhoeweler who has contributed to our coverage the past three cycles with his presidential portraits. Excited to work with these illustrators and about some upcoming collaborations as we head in to 2021. (11) https://twitter.com/michaelhoeweler/status/1325513618700570629?s=20
I could go on and on, but I'll stop here. Thanks for humoring me and no doubt this is just scratching the surface of the great work done by The Post. So many are already back and hard at work. (12)
