And we want to let them do that
work because we respect that
work and we respect democracy.
That is power to the people,
because all the people count to us.
So we want to thank everybody.
For sticking with us.
Or, as I like to say,
for standing tall with us.
Are we gonna let this process play out?
We're going to let this process play out.
We're gonna let make sure that
every person has their vote counted.
And then we gonna have something to say about
it, am I right?
But while while we are waiting
for that process I think.
I think being brash got something
to say about it.
Alright.
Thank you everybody.
Ohh man, thank you everybody.
I am so, so happy to be here with all
of you and my family and my partner
and governance and all the phenomenal
Michiganders who worked so hard to
make sure that our voices were heard,
to make sure that we set our state on the
course that is focused on the future,
that is focused on solving problems,
not demonizing.
Others that is focused on ensuring that
Michigan is the place to build your life,
to raise your family,
and to make a great, a great existence.
Here we have come a long way, Michigan.
We are thrilled. Thrilled
at the unexpected high turn out,
we are thrilled that the three
ballot initiatives got passed.
And I never thought I'd be so
happy about Fox News, but I'm glad
they called this election, too.
As Lieutenant governor said,
we are waiting for some final
numbers and we do not want to
keep you here all night long,
but we are feeling damn good
about where we are headed.
And the prospect of leading this state for
four more years is something for which we
are incredibly grateful and excited about.
And regardless of who is in office,
we will always work with anyone who
actually wants to solve a problem,
because there's nothing more important
than the people of this state to us.
All of the people of this state.
And so I thank you for your encouragement,
your support.
I thank you for being here until
the wee hours of the morning.
And I don't know if you want to come back
for a little press conference in the morning,
but we will be ready to talk
about what the future of this
state is for the next four years.
I love you all.
I love my husband,
my girls and my 3 stepsons.
I am so grateful to be here
with every single one of you.
Have a wonderful rest of the night.
Make good choices.
That's what I say to my children
and we will continue to serve.
We will continue to leave.
We will make Michigan a leader,
a place where every person is
respected and protected under the law.
A place where women make their own decisions.
A place that protects civil rights
and workers rights and where there
is a path for everyone.
Thank you everybody. I love you.
