"November 4, 2008 is a day that will go down in history. Record numbers of Californians cast ballots today, and when all the votes are tallied, we will have delivered the Golden State for Barack Obama and Joe Biden. California Democrats will make gains in Congress, the State Legislature, and in local races throughout the state.
 
"From the beginning, this campaign has been about bringing people together for change. The issues facing California and our nation are too great for the old politics. We've seen millions of Californians get involved who have never been interested in politics, never volunteered on a campaign, and many who have never been registered to vote before.
 
"Today, Californians decided that just witnessing history wasn't enough; we've taken a stand, and together, we've made history.
 
"I'd like to commend Secretary of State Debra Bowen and all the county elections officials for doing such a great job handling the massive workload in a record-breaking year."    -- Sen. Art Torres (Ret.),  Chairman, California Democratic Party
