Dear Friends and Supporters,

I want to thank all of you for all the support and hard work that you provided during my campaign. I entered this race as an honest, hard-working candidate with a passion for agriculture and the citizens of this great state. While my campaign for Agriculture Commissioner is over, I heard your concerns along the way, and I will continue to support the interests of the agricultural community in any way I can. I leave this experience richer in that I can measure my worth not just by the number of votes, but by the quality of the friends and supporters I met along the way. God bless you all this day and every day.

Regards, Joe Messineo
