Big numbers, folks, big numbers. Right now, we stand here with a HUGE mandate from the Atlasian people to continue the pursuit of a New Great Society and BRING THE FUN back to this game!

However, this election is far from over. As we saw with YT last February and Sev last June (an election that LT himself was in!), anything is possible. No lead, no matter how large, is secure. So, folks, keep voting! Go the polls, and cast your ballot for the OBD/UNL ticket. Let's bring this one home!

Portland, Oregon - VICTORY!

THANK YOU, ATLASIA!

Folks, we've done it! We have won this election, and we're bringing the FUN all the way to the White House!

I'm honored and humbled to have received such a sweeping mandate from the Atlasian people. Pundits are going wild with superlatives - the largest victory margin since June 2020. The highest final round percentage for a Labor candidate, perhaps, ever? And, a decisive victory for bold, left-wing voices in the Senate, where our coalition surged across the board to recapture a stunning 11-7 advantage - ready to get to work on taking the mantle from President Scott to advance the New Great Society.

But, we didn't get this win alone. This victory is one to share. First and foremost, I'd like to thank every Atlasian who voted for the OBD/UNL ticket - whether Labor, DA, RCP, NKT, Federalist, or Independent, it is thanks to you all that I'm standing here today. I'd like to thank our close allies in the Democratic Alliance, the Revolutionary Communist Party, and the Neo-Kantian Front for their invaluable aid in organizing this campaign both before and during election weekend - we'll be working together once more in Nyman! And, I'd like to thank the good folks of the Labor Party, who have stood by my side since the day over two years ago when I made my first foray into Atlasian public office. Outgoing Senators MB and Pericles, who introduced me to the game, guided me through the then-intimidating waters of Atlasian citizenry, and encouraged me to run for President this election. First Minister Truman, who I worked with closely in Parliament to get work done for the people of Fremont. Governor KaiserDave, PPT Western Democrat, Senator S019 and MP FalterinArc, who have been some of my closest allies during my time in Atlasian government. And, President Scott, an esteemed, experienced public servant - and a great ally - who has laid the groundwork for our administration to build off of!

I'd also like to acknowledge the folks on the other side of the aisle, whose different viewpoints and ideological diversity keep our democracy running. I've received gracious congratulations, in public and private, from folks like West Midlander and LT - thanks for a race well run. And, thank you to Dabbing Santa - despite our ideological differences, you ran the most active campaign Atlasia's seen in a while, and have certainly created some excitement on the boards. And, of course, a hearty thanks to everyone else who voted this weekend - as my friend WB said, it's important to have your voice heard.

In the coming days, I'll be in close contact with President Scott and his administration as we prepare to begin the transition process. But once again - THANK YOU, ATLASIA!
