Chris Exias released the following statement:

When I started on this journey, I decided that in order to serve the people of Rockland County effectively, I had to connect with the communities that make up this diverse county. Since then, my wife Alejandra, daughter Gabriela, and even our little guy Mateo and I set out to get to know all of our neighbors better. I went everywhere possible and met as many people as possible, from upscale galas to community service events, black tie dinners to backyard barbeques, worship services to candidate forums. I rolled up my sleeves, worked shoulder-to-shoulder with you, and learned about what drives you to action. I also shared what fuels my passion for public service and how Family Court is where I can make the biggest difference serving this wonderful place I call home.
On Primary Day, I didn’t want you to just vote for me, I wanted you to know me, and I wanted to know you. My fervent hope and prayer was that when you voted for me, you were voting for someone you were familiar with and most of all someone you trusted.
Thank you to everyone who voted for me and asked their friends and family to do likewise. I promise to honor the immense trust placed in me to be a fair-minded, thoughtful, patient, and compassionate Family Court Judge with an unwavering commitment to justice for all that appear before me.

I humbly ask for your continued support and prayers as we continue along this journey together. This week’s Primary Election victory is a victory for ALL ROCKLAND FAMILIES! Thank you all so much!
