Yes, today is Primary Election Day. It has been a long tough campaign. A lot of people have worked a lot of hours and spent a lot of time stuffing envelopes, making phone calls and knocking on doors.
To all of you who have supported my campaign, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. It has meant so much to Heidi and me for so many people to get involved with this campaign.
I have tried to stick to the issues and let voters know how I would serve them in Raleigh. Many times it became necessary to point out the differences between my opponent and me. But in the end, the newspaper editorial board and the business community found it to be in the best interest of New Hanover County to support my candidacy. I am grateful to them for understanding my positions on the issues and the values I will bring to the job.
Please do one more thing – even if it is in the rain – please go to the polls today and vote for me for the North Carolina Senate. And then ask at least one more Republican or Unaffiliated voter to go to the polls and cast their vote for Michael Lee for NC Senate.
Thank you again for all your support.
Michael Lee
