We, we did it! Working people did it! And I'm so damn proud to be standing here with you all tonight, or this morning I guess now. Look, a little more than a hundred days ago, I stood in front of our convention and asked you to put your faith in a logger from Allagash. I told you that we had a party to unite a movement to build and a senator to defeat. Well, tonight, tonight, or again this morning, the people of Maine have elected that logger to the United States Senate.
