We did it!!

You have my most sincere and humble thanks for your very generous
support, time, talents and contributions to make my election possible.
We upset the two-term liberal incumbent in the General Election on
Tuesday November 2nd thanks to those of you who cast your ballots
for Positive Change, Fiscal Responsibility and Common Sense. You
have my pledge that I will work very hard to earn and keep the sacred
trust you have given me to help move Wisconsin Forward once again.
You, the people, have spoken clearly with a mandate that we need a
change of direction in State Government. I will listen carefully to you
and discuss with you your concerns and your ideas on how we can
make this happen. I will represent the good people of the 93rd
District--not political parties or special interest groups.

Together, our voices will be heard!

 

Warren

May God grant me the Serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
The Courage to accept the things I can,
And the Wisdom to know the difference.
