‘Let’s Get to Work,’ Mark Kelly Says
Mr. Kelly, an astronaut and retired Navy, captain defeated Senator Martha McSally, Republican of Arizona, in a special election.
Now, some of you watching tonight did not vote for me. And that’s OK. I’m going to be your senator, too, because our state doesn’t need a Democrat senator or a Republican senator — we need an Arizona senator, a senator like John McCain, who I looked up to as a young Navy pilot. Because this mission does not end when the last vote is counted. It is only the beginning. Now, when I was at NASA, we were trained for two years for a space shuttle mission, two years of being in the space shuttle simulator and flying and training and two years of focusing on the details. Two years before we were on the launch pad, ready to go. And then the work started. Now the work starts. And we desperately need Washington to work for Arizona. There is nothing, nothing that we cannot achieve if we set our minds to it and work together — so let’s get to work, Arizona, and let’s do it together. Thank you very much, everybody.
