Dear Supporters,
Although our campaign did not secure victory in the recent election, I am humbled and deeply grateful for the unwavering support you have shown throughout this journey. Your belief in me, your non-aligned independent Mayoral candidate, has been both inspiring and heartening. I also extend my deepest gratitude to the dedicated volunteers who tirelessly worked alongside me, and whose commitment and passion have been instrumental in our campaign.
Congratulations to the newly elected Mayor. I extend my sincerest congratulations to Mrs Rosanna Natoli for her success in the election. Winning the trust and confidence of the community is no small feat, and I wish her the very best in her new role.
To all those who cast their votes in my favour, I extend my heartfelt gratitude. Your support has been the driving force behind our campaign, and I am truly honored to have had your backing. While our efforts may not have yielded the desired outcome, the principles and values we stood for remain as important as ever.
Throughout this campaign, I emphasised the need for authentic leadership experience, a commitment to responsible management of our region's budget, and a dedication to compliance and genuine consultation. These principles will continue to guide me in my future endeavours, as I remain steadfast in my belief that performance should always take precedence over politics.
Our region's diversity is our greatest strength, and it has always been at the heart of our campaign. I am a firm believer in the power of meaningful consultation and ensuring that every voice is heard, regardless of background or affiliation.
As we move forward, let us not forget the unique character of each community within our region and the importance of preserving our natural beauty while embracing progress. Together, let us continue to work towards a future that honours our past and embraces the opportunities of tomorrow.
Once again, thank you for your trust, your support, and your unwavering dedication. It has been an honour to stand as your candidate, and I look forward to continuing to serve our community in whatever capacity I can.
With gratitude,
Wayne
