I have tried not to be your average politician. Being such would mean offering my congratulations to the incumbent. While I now do so out of common courtesy and political protocol, it would be disingenuous to appear satisfied with the result.

I am not, but the people have spoken and I respect their decision.

It’s apparent the majority in our district believe the current economic of the 2nd Franklin District is one they can live with.

I wish to sincerely thank the many people who supported our campaign.

Bob
