It is a week past the election and I want to take a minute thank everyone for their support!
Thank you to the families who donated financially.
Thank you to my friends who wrote endorsements, comments and shared posts on facebook.
Thank you to those who came to the public forums as friendly faces (those were nerve-wracking!)
Thank you to so many people who spread the word about my campaign. Your personal recommendations spread further than my voice alone.
Thank you to everyone who encouraged me along the way. You have no idea how strong and powerful your words were to me. I have saved all of your comments to pull out in the future when I need them.
Thank you to the 7,000 voters who chose me on their ballot. That is a higher number than I dreamed of and I am humbled that so many people put their faith in me.
As I got into the election season I found that my family and work commitments changed the amount of time and energy that I was able to put into my campaign. I love this district but my family comes first. I prayed about it a lot and truly believe that God has other plans for me this season.
I learned a lot about the District, our community, the election process and myself. I still have plenty to do on the Long Range Planning Committee and elsewhere in the District and we will see what happens next.
Gratefully,
Crysti
