To all of our supporters, thank you from my very soul. To all the voters who voted, I promise to respect each and everyone of you. Honesty, fairness, and decency to all in the administration of justice. It is time to mend fences, make peace with our fellow citizens, and live and work together as friends and neighbors. Let us now unite our district for the good of all of our citizens. God bless.”
