Win or lose, one last time from the bottom of our hearts: Thank you. We have a lot to be proud of. This campaign was hard-fought, with plenty of integrity, and a big dose of good humor. We built a winning coalition that will last long beyond this election to help make Colorado a better place. 

Regardless of the outcome, we picked the right fight, got to know each other (and ourselves!) a little better, and pulled together to push for better schools and roads.

It has been a pleasure.

With sincere appreciation and gratitude,
