Friends,

From the very beginning of this campaign, you showed up—collecting signatures, offering endorsements, donating your time and resources, opening doors, making calls, sharing posts, and simply telling friends and fellow voters, “You should get to know Nicholas Palmer.”

Thank you.

Politics is never a straight line. Like anything worthwhile, there are twists and turns—days that energize you, moments that test you, and lessons you only learn by walking through them. But through it all, what I will remember most is the steady encouragement, the prayers, and the people who believed that our courts matter and that integrity still matters in public service.

Scripture says, “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” That’s how this feels. Whatever the outcome of any single chapter, I’m grateful we ran this race the right way—with faith, with purpose, and with respect for the voters we were honored to meet.

And I hope you’ll stay engaged. The work continues, and our community deserves a strong, fair, and independent judiciary. Now we turn our eyes to November.

From my family to yours, thank you for standing with me. Thank you for the prayers, the encouragement, and the belief that this work is worth doing.

With gratitude,

Nicholas Palmer
