Friend —
I am so incredibly proud of the movement that we have built together, and I believe that we’re going to have a good night tonight. Earlier today, folks all over Nevada showed up at community centers, elementary schools, and even casinos to stand in a corner with their neighbors and raise their voices for a person they believe in. It is the honor of a lifetime that so many of those Nevadans believed in me and in what we’re fighting for, and after today’s caucuses, I am readier than ever before to see this through and put power back into the hands of the people.
When I got into this race, it was because I was worried about what I was seeing in the Democratic primary: a group of Washington insiders promising change, but unlikely to meaningfully reform the very system that keeps them in power. I still feel that way. We can’t fix this broken system of government — a system that puts big corporations and Mar-a-Lago country club members ahead of working families — by putting someone in charge who’s been at the center of that system for nearly 30 years.
But now, after seven months on the campaign trail, it’s about more than that. I feel deeply indebted to the million-plus people who have joined our movement. You knocked on doors, donated to help me get on the debate stage, joined our online community, and so much more. Your trust and support is a responsibility I take seriously. I feel honor-bound to do my very best to represent you well in this primary and beat Mr. Trump with you in November.
Thank you for all that you do. I’m grateful for every single person who’s gotten involved in our campaign, and I’m ready to keep this incredible momentum going.
Tom
