Dear Friends,
I worked extremely hard for the past seven months but unfortunately I didn't win last night. My congratulations to our new County Supervisor David Cullen.
I gave it my all but couldn't overcome the obstacles that come when facing a well financed incumbent. While I did very well in the Washington Heights and parts of Wauwatosa, but wasn't able to win the majority of Milwaukee wards. What's so disappointing is that I let all of you down by not winning the election, and for that I'm truly sorry. Many of you gave so much to me and this campaign and it means the world to me that you believed in me so much. I don't know if I can ever repay the debt.
For the time being, I'm looking forward to reconnecting with my family and preparing for our fourth child due in a few weeks. While I won't be able to work towards fixing problems facing our community from the County Courthouse, you can be sure my fight to protect our transit and parks system will continue.
One positive take away from this campaign is all the new friends I made. There are some great people in our community and I'm lucky to count you among my friends.
Thank you all again so much for your support.
