Thank You! January 14th, 2008

To the Northfield News:

Dear Editor,

Thank you for running my pre-paid ads and for your basic election coverage. Overall, I want to thank all of the media in and out of the district and the special forums and interviews for providing overall fair coverage to the voting public. I further want to thank all of the real resident tax paying voters for getting out to vote and to congratulate Mr. Dahle on his victory.

My statement on the election is this: I believe the election results were based more on an emotional party vote than on issues or on the experience of the candidates.

Further, I would like to thank my consultants, Making Words Work and Dancing Sun Multimedia for working me into their schedules on short notice and for their product. I want to thank all of the voters who voted for me and what I represent. While it would have been nice to carry the day, I accept the way my campaign turned out. The voters had a third choice in this very short election period, and this third choice packed experience with a whole new set of perspectives and realities.
