Comrades, friends, countrymen,
The polls have closed and it's clear that you have given me the honour of being your next Senator. I thank everyone who lent me and the Northeast freedom movement their support. You have delivered a good trashing to the forces of reaction and sent a clear message to the corrupt establishment in Nyman - you want a stronger voice for the Northeast, and I promise you that I will be that voice.
It has, it must be said, been a mixed night for those of us in the Northeast National Party. While you elected a NNP Senator overwhelmingly, the Communist Party candidate narrowly defeated by great friend Clyde, and the classic con from shadowy unionist forces defeated the independence referendum through a whisper campaign of smears and lies. I am heartbroken for Clyde, who is a towering figure in our region and a true patriot who has a bright future. I'm confident he will continue to stand up for what he believes in, and when the next time comes and the Northeast is free it will be because of Clyde's work.
Today I say this - the people of the Northeast have not said "no" to independence. They have said "not yet".
I congratulate my friends Senators-elect Maxwell and Nagas, and look forward to working with them and Senator Talleyrand to make this nation great again, hold the administration to account, and smash the corrupt, self-serving low energy system that has strangled all life from Atlasia.
The Northeast, Atlasia's greatest region, deserves only the best. Given the resounding margin in which I have been elected and the fierce urgency of the present malaise, I urge Senator RPRyor to resign his seat and allow the Governor to appoint me in order to give the Northeast a seniority advantage in the new session.
Thank you! Let's get moving!
