In a brief statement to the media Christensen said, “I’ve accomplished everything I set out to do. I stood firm on my principles, and never wavered from the tenant’s of being pro-life, pro-liberty, and pro-family. The future belongs to those who show up, and I’ve been fully invested for the last 8 years to make a difference in North Dakota. The next chapter in my life is taking me to a new state, with new opportunities and adventures. God blessed me with a beautiful wife to share all of it with. No matter how far away I move, District 24 will always be home. To God be the Glory for all we accomplished.”

Yours Truly and Mutually pledged, Cole Christensen
