Presidential election result:
Record number of SEIU volunteers earn re-election for President Obama.
Tonight is a victory for working people everywhere.

“By re-electing President Barack Obama tonight, working people voted for a country with a vibrant middle class fueled by good jobs and where everyone has a fair shot at the American Dream. Voters rejected the notion that the rich should be allowed to run roughshod over our economy with shameful tax breaks and let off the hook by not investing in America.”
— Mary Kay Henry, President of the 2.1 million member Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
