Dear
Constituents
and Supporters:
Let me take
a moment to
thank each of
you for allowing
me to continue
serving as your
U.S. Representative.
Your votes,
financial support
and hundreds
of volunteer
hours were critical
to this effort,
and I thank
you from the
bottom of my
heart.
On Tuesday,
November 7th,
2006 voters
around the United
States voted
for change.
Voters from
Virginia to
Montana to California
decided that
our country
needed a change.
The citizens
of the United
States have
decided that
Democrats offer
true alternatives
and fresh ideas
to the mantra
of 'Stay the
Course.'
The founding
fathers designed
our government
to be both strong
and responsible.
Checks and balances
are designed
to ensure that
minority views
are protected
and that every
citizen has
an equal opportunity
to realize the
American dream.
I look forward
to working with
the new Democratic
majority in
both the House
of Representatives
and the Senate
to take our
country in a
new direction.
I am committed
to investing
in the future
of our great
nation, and
my family and
I deeply appreciate
your continued
trust in my
leadership.
Sincerely,

Russ Carnahan
U.S. Representative
