I am so sorry that I let you down by losing the election. On the bright side, I feel blessed that I had the opportunity to meet hundreds of moms and dads and hear about the challenges that they are facing. As a problem solver, I will begin to solve the problem of getting 145 more voters interested and engaged in our local government. That’s the number of votes I was short in this election. It begins with an uncomfortable conversation with my friends and family about what I did right, what I did wrong, and what I need to do better in the next campaign.

I campaigned about how much better our county government could be if leadership were to focus their priorities on Roads, Safety, and Infrastructure. I still believe this is the right approach because it leads to strong communities and a growing economy and tax base.

Unfortunately, because nothing will change in local leadership, you can expect the County Board to produce more partisan policies, rising taxes, increased crime rates, increased homeless numbers, and our rural roads continuing to decay.

Going forward I will engage with more voters and help teach the truth so that in two years we can team up to realign the government with the values of the people who are paying taxes to fund it.

Thank you so much for your support, your prayers, your letters, and for taking the time to share your stories with me. I feel very blessed for being on this incredible journey with you in my corner and I look forward to maintaining the relationships we have started and building new ones in the next two years.

Take care and God bless,
Chris Muller
