From President Barack Obama:

“I want you to know that this wasn’t fate, and it wasn’t an accident. You made this happen.

You organized yourselves block by block. You took ownership of this campaign five and ten dollars at a time. And when it wasn’t easy, you pressed forward.

I will spend the rest of my presidency honoring your support, and doing what I can to finish what we started. But I want you to take real pride, as I do, in how we got the chance in the first place. Today is the clearest proof yet that, against the odds, ordinary Americans can overcome powerful interests.

There’s a lot more work to do. But for right now: Thank you.”

~ Barack

From Amy Klobuchar:

“As Minnesotans, we don’t vote our fears, we vote our hopes. We don’t vote for rhetoric, we vote for results. We don’t vote for extreme ideologies, we vote for common sense. And we don’t vote to go backward, we vote to go forward!

I’ve always approached my job with one simple value: Putting the people of Minnesota first and fighting for what’s right.

And that is what I will continue to do.

Getting things done in Washington in the next few years is not going to be about standing by yourself and giving a speech. The future will be in the hands of those who are willing to stand next to someone they don’t always agree with for the betterment of this country.”

~Amy
