Thank you, thank you! My fellow Americans, we have delivered a real win for our country tonight. While I know this change in electoral system has been difficult at times, we have persevered to show the strength of our unique American democracy. Through the efforts of countless organizers, volunteers and voters, we have delivered a clear mandate for a left of center coalition.
After the last two years of extremist right wing leadership, the Republicans have been deprived of their majority, and we are in a clear place to lead the next government. In the coming days, I will reach out to other party leaders to hammer out a mutually beneficial agreement. I intend to serve as your next Prime Minister and will create a government that reflects the values we ran on.
