“What a close race,” Bristow said. “The next step now is to continue to listen to and represent my constituents. I think I’ve done it fairly well over the last year, it’s been a lot of work.”

“When listening to all sides in the district you have your own thoughts and own beliefs, but you have to represent the district,” Bristow added. “I fought hard to do that and will continue to do that.”
