Ciarrocchi conceded Thursday, congratulating Houlahan on her re-election.

“Congresswoman, this fall during the campaign, you spoke about being bipartisan; securing our border; making us energy independent; and, standing-up to President Biden when necessary—along with your personal philosophy and priorities,” Ciarrocchi wrote on his Facebook page.

Ciarrocchi asked Houlahan to listen when neighbors express their fears about border security, and our need for true energy independence, and their anxiety due to inflation and the sinking economy.

“Many voters embraced your message about bipartisan solutions,” he wrote “I respectfully ask that you carry that message forward.

“For our nation, for ourselves and for our children, I still believe in the Promise of America.”
