Dear Friends,

Last night and all day today I have been emotionally overwhelmed. There are moments when I cannot stop crying as I hear and see our next President, Barack Obama, speak or hear others share their moments and emotions over this very historic moment for the United States of America.

You have all worked long and hard for this campaign and I am personally very grateful to each and everyone of you. From the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU!!

The LGBT community now has an ally heading to the White House to serve ALL the people!

On a personal note: It was an awesome experience having been on the ballot with Obama/Biden. Even though I lost my election to the North Carolina State House, I do not see it as a defeat. Having been an openly gay man running in the conservative leaning district and still managed to garner 41% of the vote is really amazing, especially since I was only the in the race for 8 weeks.

We also rejoice over the election of Kay Hagan and our very first female Governor, Bev Perdue.

Thank you once again for helping Obama Pride North Carolina and when the "official" results are in, I am confident Obama will win the 15 electoral votes from our great state!

Yes We Can and We Did!

Wade Boyles

State Coordinator for
Obama Pride North Carolina
