Ruth Larson: Congratulations to Gray, and the work toward political goals continue

To The Daily Sun,

Congratulations to Sen. James Gray for his election to NH Senate District 6. Although his vision of New Hampshire and mine differed in many ways, I wish him well as he returns to Concord.

To my supporters and to all the friends I met during my campaign, thanks for the trust you put in me. Our campaign was a spirited one, with a lot of joy in it. Even though it was always viewed as an uphill battle, in a heavily gerrymandered district, we gave it our best.

As for the future, I plan to continue to work toward the same goals that have been motivating me for years, including voting rights, reproductive rights, LGBTQ+ rights, fair taxation, support of our local schools, the environment and clean energy, cannabis legalization, and an end to extremism in New Hampshire politics.
