To all of the Democratic candidates. To all of the Democratic voters. Thank you for today!

Thank you for giving this old lady a small ray of hope for the future. Thank you for helping me remember what it feels like to believe that there might actually BE a future. Because it hasn't felt like there was since Trump took office again.

I'm not a fool, and we're not there yet. But today was a good day for Democrats, and I want to stop, smell the aroma of victory, and remember that good things can happen.

Thank you all.

I know that *I* did, and I know most of us did. I am SO glad to see these results coming in. I have been on pins and needles, and I am grateful for the results!
