Thank you.

November's election was an overwhelming success. In Pembroke and Chichester, all three Republican candidates won by a comfortable margin. Similar results occurred throughout the State. The Republican party now has 2/3rd majorities in both the House and the Senate, and holds all five Executive Councilor seats.

I owe thanks to many people who helped out on my campaign. Without those of you who were making phone calls, knocking on doors, placing my signs in your yard, or holding a sign at the polls - I would not have won. Although I won't list the names here, there is one name I do need to thank in particular. My wife, Eve, helped tremendously. If she wasn't out going door-to-door, either with me or on her own, she was at home managing the baby, the animals, and the household so I could be off, free to do campaigning on my own.

Of course, I also must thank the voters. You have put your trust in me to help solve the problems facing our State. We face an unprecedented crisis in our state budget and we must do all we can to fix this in this legislative session. Continuing to delay solutions for future legislators to solve is no longer an option.

I also would like to thank my opponents in this race. Spending time with the three outgoing representatives at the polls and at campaign events was a pleasure as they are all very nice people. While elsewhere in the nation, this campaign season was marred by some negativity, I had no negative experiences here in Pembroke and Chichester.

Thank you everyone, and I looked forward to serving you in this legislative session.
