We Made History -- Together

Share With Friends

Last night, in record-shattering numbers, Americans made history.

Barack Obama is now President-elect Obama. His election as our 44th President and the first African-American to reach the White House has electrified our country with a new sense of possibility.

President-elect Obama and Vice President-elect Biden aren't the only ones who made history. Thanks to you, our new Democratic White House will be backed by a stronger Democratic Majority in Congress.

As of right now, we gained an astounding 22 seats since last cycle, with many other races still too close to call. Your generous contributions, support and dedication made all of this possible - we could not have done this without you. And, your support ensured we have teams in place already in these races to make sure every vote is counted.

Check out the full list of race results.

On behalf of our candidates, I am writing to just say thanks. None of these new Democrats would be coming to Congress if not for you.

You helped our candidates stay on TV in the final days. You helped them respond to every Karl Rove attack and expose every Republican dirty trick. Most of all, you helped them get every voter to the polls and make sure that every vote was counted. By standing with us every step of the way, you were part of the movement that reclaimed America's future. There are still candidates fighting to win and we have teams in place to help them because of your generous support.

As President-elect Obama said last night, "change has come to America."

Thanks again for being along for this amazing ride.
