After nine months filled with a lot of hard work, stamped letters, phone calls and sign waving, the voters of District 15 have selected me as their Representative to Congress.

I am truly humbled by the results of this election.  I would like to thank my family, my campaign staff, the voters of this district, and, most importantly, our tireless volunteers.  This was a tremendous effort that can only be done with the help of others.  THANK YOU!

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my opponents – Dr. Stephen Blythe, Trevor Lowing, and Frank Zilaitis.  It was a pleasure campaigning with these gentlemen.  Their enthusiasm and passion for the issues shaped the political discussion and I enjoyed the very lively campaign.  I’ve said this many times, but I feel everyone should run for office at least once in their life.  It is an incredible experience, you learn so much, and you are most certainly the better for it.

Today is not the end of the campaign, but the beginning of a new chapter.  I now look forward to serving with all the members of Congress – both new and old, Republican and Democrat – just as I did in Tallahassee.  I vow to stand on the same principles that have always guided me to best represent the people of District 15 and all Americans.

Once again, my sincerest thank you goes out to all of our supporters. 

Thank you and God Bless,

Bill
