On the August election day it was hot and muggy and had rained nearly all day. We were hot, sweaty and wet. We had already been at the polls for seven or eight hours with four or five more to go. I looked at her and said, if you hadn't married me, you would have missed out on all this. I can't exactly describe the look I got from her, but she was still there at the end of the day.

For the last eighteen years, since I became politically active, Sarah has supported me 100% in every election and to be honest, without her support, I couldn't have entered the first race. And it's not just elections, she supports me while in office. She's been all in since day one.

All that said, I just want to publically say how much I appreciate her support, politically and in every other way. I'd hate to think which way my twig might have bent if she hadn't been here.

Thanks Sarah.
