'This is painful, and
it will be for a long time. But I want you to remember this. Our
campaign was never about one person... it was about building a country
that we love... We have seen that our country was more deeply divided
than we ever thought...'
'We must accept this result... Donald Trump is going to be our president... we owe him an open mind and a chance to lead.

Mark Charlotte Aidan.. my love for you means more than I can ever
express. You criss-crossed this country on my behalf and lifted me up
when I needed it most.

and dedicated staff, You poured your hearts into this campaign... you
were the best campaign that anybody could have ever expected or wanted.

to the millions of volunteers, community leaders, activists and union
organizers...I want everybody coming out... and make sure your voices
are heard going forward.
'To the donors, the young people in particular, i've had successes and setbacks,” “Sometimes really painful.”
“You
will have successes and setbacks too. This loss hurts. But please never
stop believing that fighting for what’s right is worth it.”
'And
to all the women.. who put their faith in this campaign and me... I
want you to know that nothing has made me prouder than to be your
champion.”
“I know we have still not shattered
that highest and hardest glass ceiling, but I know someday someone will,
and hopefully sooner than we might think right now.
“And
to all the little girls who are watching this, never doubt that you are
valuable... and deserving of every chance... to pursue your own
dreams.”
“I'm incredibly honored and grateful to have had this chance.”
“May God bless you and may God bless the United States of America.”
