Pepper: Hey, thanks

Here is a release from the Pepper campaign:

A heartfelt thank you for all of your support and your vote in yesterday's election!

Special thanks to all of you who passed out literature, worked the polls, made phone calls and put up yard signs—and a special thanks to all those elected officials (Commissioner Portune, former Commissioner Dowlin, Mayor Mark Mallory, Councilmember Jeff Berding , former Reading Mayor Earl Schmidt, North College Mayor Dan Brooks and others across the county) who energetically supported the campaign.

I would like to especially thank and congratulate my opponent, Phil Heimlich, for waging a tough, hard- fought campaign.

As I said in my acceptance speech last night, I am dedicated to bringing this county together so we can move forward. I will work with all parties and all residents to bring about progress on public safety, the Banks, and quality life issues in our many great communities.

Finally, we are planning a Volunteer Thank You Party in the coming weeks. We will let you know the details soon.

Thank you again for making this great victory possible!

Sincerely,
