   VINCE MICCO CONGRATULATES REP. STEVE ROTHMAN 

Vince Micco, Republican candidate for Congress in the 9th congressional district issued the following statement today 

I want to congratulate Congressman Steve Rothman on his re- election.  Although  my campaign to represent the people of the Ninth District was unsuccessful,  I am very proud to have had the opportunity and the honor to run for a seat in the Congress of the United  States. 

My opponent was gracious  and I wish him success in this next term.  I appreciate the fact that our race never deviated from an honest, respectful competition of ideas and positions on important issues.  The voters of New Jersey’s 9th Congressional District have spoken and I respect their decision.  With this in mind I extend my best wishes to Congressman Rothman and all the winners of the 2008 elections.   

It was a great privilege for me to be the Republican nominee for the United States House of Representatives.  Although we did not prevail at the polls, the camaraderie I experienced with benevolent, patriotic citizens is a blessing that I am grateful for.  I call on everyone who supported my candidacy to join me in working to continue to make their government better and to maintain America’s presence as the best nation on earth.  

Finally, I thank everyone who supported my candidacy.  I hope that I conducted myself in a manner that is worthy of the confidence you placed in me. 

May God bless our elected leaders with wisdom and discernment in the coming days, and keep His loving, protective hand upon our country.  Vince Micco
