To all of my Great Friends and those who supported me.
I am sorry if I let you down. I worked hard, but I guess I could have worked harder.
This journey was a life experience. I met friends, and I met enemies. For those who became friends, I love you and will always have you by my side.
I thank all of you who sacrificed and worked so hard for me. I truly appreciate what you did for me.
I am sorry for my city but I will always be here to support those who I have loved during this fight to regain respect and admiration for all who live here. I will not let this affect my tenacity and desire for a better future for my friends, children and grandchildren.
I am proud that I ran a straight and honest campaign and never once took a negative path. If that was a mistake, I accept the consequences and will never change who I am for anything.
I look forward to the next journey and will cherish all the great people who became my friends thru this experience and I love you all.
Thank you my friends and loved ones for accompanying me thru this experience. I have grown from this and come out of this a better man!
Gloria, congratulations on your win against Ben Preston. It shows truth and honesty will always overcome evil.
To Joe Miller, learn from this lesson my friend and opponent. I hope selling out to those who guided you down a negative campaign was worth it.
With my head held high!
Love,
Ron Coddington
