Tuesday November 4th was an extraordinary day for America. To witness not only the election of an African American to be our President, but also to see people wait, sometimes for hours, to vote.
 
And then on Tuesday night to witness both in the ballroom of the Hyatt in downtown Rochester and on television in cities across our country, as people truly celebrated the election of their president was an incredible experience.
 
It is one of the proudest moments of my life that I too was on the ballot on November 4, 2008. I am thankful for and humbled by the tremendous vote of confidence and support that I received. I never forget the people I represent and have the duty and honor to serve.
 
I return to Albany knowing our state faces the same tough economic times that the families in my district face. To address these problems, I will work hard and commit myself to the dedication, sacrifice and spirit President-elect Obama has asked of every American.
 
With your help and support, our state and country will get to better times ahead.
 
Thank you for your trust and confidence.
