Dear Steve,
After many, many months of an exhilarating campaign, we have reached Election Day.
How fortunate are we, as Americans and free people, to have the right to choose the direction of our great state.
It has been an honor to campaign as a candidate for New Hampshire Governor.
From Spring through Fall, I've criss-crossed this state and heard the countless concerns of Granite State citizens.
We face great challenges -- yet, I've never felt more optimistic about New Hampshire than I do now.
I am inspired by the courage and determination of the people I've met.
They are tired of the out-of-control spending and growing tax burden that are jeopardizing their future and New Hampshire's future.
It is their demand for change that makes me believe we can finally bring it to Concord.
Today, we face a fundamental choice for New Hampshire's future.
Do we continue on this path of higher taxes, more spending and massive budget deficits?
Or do we chart a new course with innovative ideas? To really change state government.
It is clear to me there is only one path we can afford to go down.
I have a proven record as a fiscal conservative. At Health and Human Services, I returned over $143 million to the state's taxpayers, while improving the quality of services.
As governor, I'll use my veto pen to make the tough choices. We'll cut taxes and reduce spending to create jobs.
That's how we get our economy moving again. And that's the change the New Hampshire needs.
I am grateful for your support and for all the hard work you have done.
I've asked alot of you this campaign and I will ask once again today - we all need to work as hard as we can today to turn out the vote.
If you stand by me today, I'll stand by you and the taxpayers of New Hampshire every day as Governor.
Thank you and God bless you,
