I will be sent back to Washington, D.C., with the grace of God and all the Alaskan voters out there because all Alaskans have asked me to go back and continue my service.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
What I am delivering to Alaska is a future that holds hope and opportunity for jobs, for people in this state.
With the consent of the people, I will seek to continue service in Congress for the well-being of our state and our nation.
We've been helping you out in Alaska in considerable ways, and you're walking away from the responsibility, and we're not going to allow that.
I've spent the past month in Washington, D.C., and it is terrific to be back in America.
Now is the time for all Alaskans to come together and reach out with our core message of taking power from the federal government and bringing it back home to the people.
I was returned to the Senate by the people of Alaska, and I have an obligation to all of them - it's not an obligation to my party; it's an obligation to Alaskans.
I am working for Alaska's best interests.
I hope to continue to be serving South Dakota in Congress.
I consider myself a product of Alaska. The love and the debt that I feel to my home state, you always want your hometown to be the proudest of you.
I look forward to continuing to serve the people of New York and making our state a safer place to live, work and raise families for many years to come.
