E-mail from Patty Pansing Brooks:
Its a humbling experience to have so many people put their trust in me to get our state on a better, kinder path to progress. Whether you read my emails, told a friend about my campaign, volunteered, made a donation, voted, or cheered me on from afar, I want you to know that this campaign would never have been possible without you.
And the best news? Were just getting started.
While the results of the NE-01 Special Election arent what wed hoped for, Im truly overwhelmed with gratitude today.
This campaign has felt like a full-fledged sprint to the finish from day one. But despite all the chaos, you have stood firmly by my side and used your grassroots power to get us to this point. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for fighting alongside me.
Were gearing up for the general election with a strategy to win, momentum on our side, and a team that is second to none. Were proud to have you be a part of our team, and we hope youll pledge your support for our general election campaign by contributing tonight!
Though we came up a bit short, our numbers at the polls today prove that were right on track to win our ultimate goal a full term in November. These results send a clear and powerful message that Nebraskans are ready to fight for change and Im ready to deliver.
