OPINION — I am writing to express my deepest gratitude to the residents of Fountain Hills following my recent victory over Michael Wallace in the Republican primary.
I am incredibly humbled and thankful for the overwhelming support I received throughout this campaign. To everyone who took the time to write letters on my behalf, post positive messages on social media, make campaign donations and proudly display a sign in their front yard — thank you. I also want to extend my sincere appreciation to those who went out of their way to talk to their friends and neighbors about my reelection. Your grassroots efforts and belief in our shared vision mean the world to me.
A special thank you goes out to the generous residents who invited me in for meet-and-greets. Having the opportunity to connect with you directly and hear your thoughts is the most rewarding part of public service.
