As I am sure you are aware, Pauline Dixon, my former opponent, was chosen as the Democratic candidate for U.S. Representative in District 32.

First, I would like to thank all who assisted with the campaign with votes, time and funds. Your efforts did make a difference, and I urge you to continue to participate actively in the process of reappropriating government for use for the benefit of all citizens.

I also ask that you join me in the continued active support of the Democratic slate of candidates, including my former opponent. There is much work to be done.

Join me in continuing the process of speaking up for the courage to tell the truth, and the compassion to create a just society as America becomes all that it can be.

"Now, therefore, since the struggle deepens,
Since evil abides and good does not yet prosper,
Let us gather what strength we have, what confidence and valor,
That our small victories may end in triumph,
And the world awaited be a world attained."
