Welcome

Dear Friends, Family and Supporters,
I want to extend my heartfelt gratitude to you all -for all of your hard work and support of my candidacy for N.C. House. For your encouragement, your prayers, your generous gifts of your time, talents, and financial support- I want to thank you all so very much. Thank you for believing in me, and my commitment to serve all of the Citizens of the 18th House District.
We ran a positive, professional, grassroots campaign, and I thank you all for standing by my side- making phone calls, writing letters, sending emails, attending events, putting out signs, knocking on doors, and working the polls! Everything you all did helped tremendously!
We knew going into this House District 18 race, it would be a challenge- with voter registration numbers of 48% Democrat, 28% Unaffiliated, and 24% Republican- and to have earned the trust, support, and confidence of over 43% of the voters is wonderful. I was able to garner bipartisan support; we made great strides within the District with new relationships, and built new bridges within the community.
I really enjoyed getting out and about within the District to talk to so many wonderful people, and making new friendships all across the County! I am truly humbled by the efforts that so many people put into my campaign, and for that I will be forever grateful.
And at the end of the day, although I did not win my race, the ultimate team goal was achieved! The historic Republican majority victories in both the N.C. House of Representatives and the N.C. Senate were clear messages from the voters that they want common-sense, conservative change- to restore fiscal responsibility and government transparency to the North Carolina General Assembly.
A very special thank you goes to my wonderful husband, Dan- I could not have embarked upon this journey without his overwhelming support and patience (and, his super sign team)!
Thank you all!
Sincerely,
Beth Dawson
