To all those women in their 80s and their 90s, born before women could vote, who cast their votes for our campaign. I've told you before about Florence Steen of South Dakota, who was 88 years old, and insisted that her daughter bring an absentee ballot to her hospice bedside. Her daughter and a friend put an American flag behind her bed and helped her fill out the ballot. She passed away soon after, and under state law, her ballot didn't count. But her daughter later told a reporter, "My dad's an ornery old cowboy, and he didn't like it when he heard mom's vote wouldn't be counted. I don't think he had voted in 20 years. But he voted in place of my mom."

感謝那些在女性可以有選舉權之前出生的八、九十歲并在競選活動中投票的女士們。我在之前提到過來自南達科他州的88歲的Florence Steen, 堅持讓他的女兒帶一張缺席選舉人票到她的床邊。她女兒和朋友在她的床邊放了面美國國旗并幫助她填選票。沒多久，她離開了人世。根據(jù)國家法律，她的選票不能生效。后來她的女兒對記者說：“我爸是個脾氣不大好的老牛仔，聽到我媽的選票失效時他很失落。我想他有二十多年沒有投過票了，但他這次代替我媽媽投上了一票。”

To all those who voted for me, and to whom I pledged my utmost, my commitment to you and to the progress we seek, is unyielding. You have inspired and touched me with the stories of the joys and sorrows that make up the fabric of our lives, and you have humbled me with your commitment to our country.

感謝所有支持我的人們，那些我發(fā)誓過要盡我所能對他們奉獻的人們，還要感謝我們堅韌不屈共同前進的過程。你們那些充滿喜悅和悲傷的故事編織著我們的人生，并且激勵和感動著我，你們對國家的承諾和擔當使我自慚形穢。

Eighteen million of you from all walks of life--women and men, young and old, Latino and Asian, African-American and Caucasian, rich, poor and middle-class, gay and straight--you have stood strong with me. And I will continue to stand strong with you, every time, every place and every way that I can. The dreams we share are worth fighting for.

你們這1800萬人來生活的各個階層——無論男人和女人，年輕人和老年人，拉丁裔和亞裔，非裔美國人和高加索人，富足的、貧窮的和中產階級的人，也無論同性戀者和非同性戀。你們給與我有力的支持。無論何時何地，我將盡我所能，堅定地和你們站在一起。我們擁有同樣的夢想，值得我們一起為之奮斗，為之拼搏。

Remember--we fought for the single mom with a young daughter, juggling work and school, who told me, "I'm doing it all to better myself for her." We fought for the woman who grabbed my hand, and asked me, "What are you going to do to make sure I have health care?" and began to cry, because even though she works three jobs, she can't afford insurance.

記住——我們奮斗，為了那個在學校和工作間不斷奔波獨自撫養(yǎng)年幼女兒的單身母親，她說：“我所做的一切都是讓我這個母親更稱職”。我們奮斗，為了那個抓住我的手問我：“你打算怎樣來保證我的醫(yī)療保障？”，然后痛哭的婦女，那個同時做著三份工作，卻依舊不能支付保險的女人。
