ELECTION NIGHT

*Tonight, Sen. Clinton is on the verge of winning in South Dakota, a state
Sen. Obama's campaign predicted he would win by 15 points. Hillary's
supporters never gave up on her, and she refused to quit on them, fighting
to make sure every voice was heard in this election.

*Regardless of the outcomes, Hillary will be making no decisions tonight. In
the coming days, she will be consulting with supporters and party leaders to
determine how to move forward. The best interests of our party and our
country will guide her thinking.

*No matter who the nominee is, Hillary is committed to unifying our party.
Hillary and Senator Obama's shared views are much greater than their
differences.

*Sen. Obama is a talented public servant who has inspired and energized
millions of Americans. And we have a more vibrant party and democracy
because of the extraordinary campaign he has run.

*Today, Senator Clinton was asked whether she was open to the idea of
running as Vice-President and repeated what she has said before: she will do
whatever she can to ensure that Democrats take the White House back and
defeat John McCain.

*Over the course of this historic campaign, 18 million people have voted for
Hillary Clinton—more than anyone else in the history of the Democratic
primaries.

*18 million have cast their ballots for Hillary because they believe she is
best prepared to lead our country as commander in chief and begin turning
around our economy from her first day in office.

*Hillary's candidacy has attracted a broad coalition of new voters. Millions
of new women, Latinos and people over 45 voted in the primaries for the
first time.

*Hillary will never stop fighting for the issues she cares about—providing
universal health care, expanding economic opportunity and restoring
America's leadership in the world. She knows there is nothing we can't
accomplish if we start acting like Americans again.
