Thank you!

The outcome wasn’t what we had all hoped for.
There are still many votes being counted in this race - and every vote is important.
And though fewer than a thousand votes separate the two of us, the result is clear. My campaign for Congress is over – but the battle to “Take Our Country Back” is not.
Throughout my campaign, I delivered a simple message; certainly my supporters heard it often enough! “We have a government that is completely out of control, yet is intent on controlling every aspect of its citizens’ lives.”
That has not changed. It will not change. And our battle isn’t over.
And the second part of my message was my mission in challenging Nancy Pelosi: The Republicans must win back control of Congress in 2010. The pendulum must swing back against the unprecedented overreach that we have witnessed over the last two years.
And that battle is just beginning.
I am proud of the campaign we ran and especially proud, and humbled, by the broad support of all who contributed. To those who supported this campaign, who donated money, who walked precincts, who manned the phones and who took to the internet to deliver our message, I cannot thank you enough.
I want to thank my donors; the more than 37,000 people throughout this entire country who contributed to the campaign to unseat Nancy Pelosi and know that we must win this battle. I want you all to know that I will continue to work on your behalf.
Remember, by working on behalf of Republican candidates throughout the country, you can all still work toward that goal. When Republicans take back the House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi will lose her post as Speaker. I will be working with Republican candidates who share our goals of keeping our country safe and strong, of restoring the freedom and opportunity that has been lost, and to push reforms that will end the corruption, arrogance and the disconnect between those who govern and their constituents.
Thank you again for all your support. Let us all commit to “Take Our Country Back.”
Statement Regarding the Results of the Primary Election

It is too early to know the final outcome of Tuesday's primary election. There is a large number of absentee ballots yet to be counted that could affect the small margin of votes that currently separate John Dennis and me. Following a final count of the remaining absentee votes, we will make a further announcement.
