So New Hampshire, thank you again; now it’s on to Nevada and South Carolina and beyond, but it is not over in New Hampshire. Thousands of you volunteered and worked hard to make this happen and a record number turned out to vote.

That is how we will wrest our government from the control of moneyed interests. That is our political revolution.
