Blog: Thank You!

Statement

Date: Aug. 24, 2011

Thank you.

What we have accomplished tonight in winning the Democratic nomination is because of you and your hard work.

This campaign has been about the people. We've gone to communities large and small and talked directly to voters. Your enthusiasm and hard work is what led to our victory tonight.

But the work is not over. We have less than 90 days before the general election on November 8. I'm going to need you again.

I'm also going to need the supporters of Bill Luckett. Mr. Luckett ran a terrific campaign. Talking with him tonight, I thanked him for staying on message and keeping this race positive and focused on the issues. We both proved that you can run a positive race, not make personal attacks and still be successful.

I hope that everyone who supported Bill will join us. Bill and I share similar views on most every issue, especially education and job creation.

For now, let's celebrate. Tomorrow, let's work.

Thank you so much. May God bless you, and God bless the State of Mississippi.

Sincerely,

Johnny DuPree

Democratic Candidate for Governor
