STATEMENT BY GREG STANTON
“I’m deeply grateful to the people of Arizona’s Fourth District for trusting me to keep fighting for them in Congress. This campaign presented voters with a real choice about how Democrats should lead. Tonight, they chose proven leadership that fights back, delivers real results, and brings our party together.
“Whether in City Hall or the halls of Congress, I’ve worked with Democrats, Republicans, and independents to do what’s right and to get things done. That’s the kind of leadership this moment demands, and it’s exactly what I’ll continue to deliver for the East Valley.
“I want to especially thank our incredible community of volunteers and supporters here in Arizona that fuel our work every day. None of this is possible without you.
“I also want to thank Kai Newkirk and his supporters for the passion and energy they brought to this race. The stakes are too high for anything less than a united front against Donald Trump and the Republican nominee who will rubber stamp Trump’s extreme MAGA agenda.
“Arizonans simply cannot afford more of the same. We need a Congress focused on lowering costs, protecting health care, and confronting the corruption threatening our democracy and Arizona families every single day.
“Our campaign welcomes Arizonans from all political stripes – liberals, conservatives, independents alike – who love this country, believe in its promise, and refuse to let extremism define its future. If you believe the same, there is room for you in this campaign.
“Join us at GregStanton.com and together, we’ll defeat the MAGA agenda, restore decency to public service , and build an economy that works for Arizona families. That’s the work ahead, and I’m ready to lead it.”
