Saturday's results were not the outcome we had hoped for, but the voters of Orleans Parish have spoken, and I respect their decision. I am deeply proud of the work we accomplished together over the last four years. We modernized the Clerk’s Office, strengthened election operations, secured major grants to digitize court records, and built systems that will serve our courts, our partners in the criminal justice system, and the public for years to come. We also launched a successful expungement program that helped countless residents clear old barriers and move forward with dignity and opportunity. We positioned this office among the most transparent and forward-moving in the state, and that progress will remain.
I called Calvin Duncan personally to congratulate him. I stand ready to support a smooth and professional transition so that the important work of this office continues without interruption. I remain grateful to the voters, to my incredible team, and to everyone who believed in our mission of modernization, integrity, and service. Serving the people of Orleans Parish as Clerk of Criminal District Court has been one of the great honors of my life. Thank you.
