Hillary just sent out the following message:

Dear Friend,

After tonight's tremendous victory here in West Virginia, it's clear that the pundits declaring this race over have it all wrong. The voters in West Virginia spoke loud and clear -- they want this contest to go on.

I'm listening to the voters -- and to you.

With your help, I'm going to carry the energy of tonight's victory into the next contests in Kentucky and Oregon. And just as always, I'll be depending on you to share every step of this journey with me. You have worked your heart out, put yourself on the line for what you believe in, and given generously. And I'm not about to turn my back on you.

We've proved conventional wisdom wrong time and again in this race. We did it again tonight in West Virginia. Let's keep going.

Thank you,

Hillary

Hillary Rodham Clinton

What People are Saying Across West Virginia

With the West Virginia primary approaching, voters across the state are declaring their support for Hillary:

...just wanted to drop a line to tell you about one of your amazing supporters in WV. This would be my cousin Kathy. In the last past year she has been through open heart surgery and leukemia. She got out of the hospital about a month and half ago in remission. Tonight I was getting on the interstate to go to Clarksburg, and who do I see - my cousin Kathy standing on the side of the road waving a Hillary sign.  That is true heart. Like me, she was raised by a mother who taught her to be independent and never set limitations. I won't vote for you for president because you are a woman. I will vote for you because of your experience, intelligence and because I feel you truly want to help this country. The fact that you are a woman…is a bonus. Oh, and I'm fairly certain my husband, son , and nephew will be voting for you, also. Good Luck! 

-Julie L. from Fairmont


My name is Andrew and I am a junior political science major at West Virginia University in Morgantown, WV. Four weeks ago I was sure my vote in this primary was going to Senator Obama, but after hearing the former President speak at our campus and sitting down and figuring out what matters in this country, there is only one way to vote --  and that’s for Senator Clinton. Senator Clinton has a lifetime record of fighting for hard working Americans and I believe once again she will prove the critics wrong. I believe we need someone in Washington who won't forget where they come from and where they've been and I believe Hillary Clinton is that person. Hillary you'll always be a Mountaineer and on May 13th we will make sure West Virginia remains Clinton Country!

-Andrew N. from Morgantown


...Hillary has the experience, compassion, and wisdom to build America back up to where it should be and put the pieces of our country back together again. There are many leaders in this world, but the ones that lead with compassion are the only ones that are remembered and respected.  Hillary has gained our respect in the past and will continue to prove that she deserves it in the future…A vote for Hillary is a vote for the change we need and the experience to back it up.  I am putting my middle class family of four into the hands of Hillary knowing that she will care for us as she has cared for her own…Hillary is the future of our American dream.  I put my full faith in Hillary's hands to provide the answers to the most difficult problems in our world today.  If you look closely into Hillary's eyes when she speaks of the change needed for us, you can actually see the compassion for the American people.  You can see yourself, your neighbor, your family, your friends, your children's future...and the world right there in her eyes.  As she speaks you can actually hear her listening to you, and the needs of everyone.  Hillary's presence makes you feel that there is a future worth waking up for.

-Jennifer L. from Bridgeport


I am the Assessor of Marshall County, WV and I want to give my endorsement to Hillary as the next President of the United States.  Senator Clinton is the only candidate that is proposing solutions to problems that affect working-class West Virginians and Americans.  I don't think I've ever seen a candidate display such tenacity and a fighting spirit -- and Hillary does it every day on the campaign trail.  These qualities are what I want in my president, and I am fully confident that Hilary will carry those qualities to the White House.  I've always stated in my election campaigns that I got into politics to try to help people.  There is no doubt in my mind that Hilary has done the same.

-Christopher K. from McMechen

Mother's Day in West Virginia

by Jessica Santillo, West Virginia Communications Director
5/12/2008 9:34:42 AM

On Mother’s Day, Hillary traveled throughout West Virginia with Chelsea, starting off her day by attending Church in Huntington. The senior pastor gave some inspiring remarks about making a difference in this world and having a voice. His words were very fitting, as Hillary has pledged to be a voice in the White House for all Americans who have been invisible to the current administration.

Hillary and Chelsea then went on to Webster to tour the home of Anna Marie Jarvis, who founded Mother’s Day 100 years ago. The next stop was Grafton, where Hillary took part in a Mother’s Day celebration. Hillary spoke to the gathered crowd, and talked about the inspiring women and mothers she has met in West Virginia and throughout the country. Read Hillary's full speech here. Hillary ended her day in Eleanor, and it was amazing to see how many people came out to fill the George Washington Middle School gym on Mother’s Day. The bottom line – West Virginia loves Hillary!
