Thank you all for coming, you know, I’m really not even supposed to be here. Think about it: I mean, I’m an immigrant from another country, and yet, you all have given me the opportunity to do this. This is such an amazing thing for me. Really, even when I had the protestors from the other side, I looked at them in wonder. They thought they were hurting me, but they weren’t because I thought to myself, this is America. It’s amazing that we can protest each other and go […]

Names may be spelled incorrectly. Hi everybody. Thank you so, so much. I appreciate you all being here. I mean, my heart is so full because I know how hard so many in this state worked. We still have a lot of work to do, there’s no question about that. We wanted to see a different outcome, but one thing that I can say, as far as me and my team go, we know that we worked as hard this campaign as we possibly could, and I had the best […]

Good evening, everyone. I’ve decided not to read any speech tonight and speak from my heart. As you all know, the results that we just saw right now are not the results that we were expecting. But I want to start by first thanking my incredible family. My incredible family that has put up with me traveling non-stop all around the state. My sisters, who were canvassing and staffing all the polling sites, my nieces, my nibling, my mother—hi, mom. You know, she’s one of the reasons why I decided […]

TODAY AND ALL THROUGH THIS CAMPAIGN, WE HAVE VISITED PARTY OFFICE AND CANDIDATE FIELD OFFICES AND EVERY TIME, THERE WAS SO MANY OF YOU THAT WERE CALLING OR PREPARING TO KNOCK OR DOING SOMETHING TO ORGANIZE AND GET OUT THAT VOTE. AND AGAIN, I THINK YOU FOR THAT. BECAUSE OF THAT, NO MATTER THE RESULTS OF THIS RACE, WE ALL WON TONIGHT. AS YOU KNOW, I CAME FROM VERY HUMBLE BEGINNINGS, AND I OFTEN FOUND MYSELF AT A DISADVANTAGE. AND FOR THE LONGEST TIME, I LET THAT GET ME DOWN. […]
