00:00Thank you, everybody. Thank you, Austin.
00:11I want to start by thanking some of the people who are here today.
00:16Jonathan Boody for his music.
00:18Jessica Soto.
00:20JP Ciarazzo, buddy.
00:24My brother, who was side-by-side the entire COVID pandemic with us.
00:29I'm one of the few people who remains lucky during the pandemic.
00:34Willie D, thanks for coming out from the kitchen.
00:39And then Rylan Engelhardt, who has given his life to giving us better food.
00:45And then three Texas volunteers, Kim Limburg, Judy Tucker.
00:51And Casey Malish.
00:56And they were part of Team ULA.
00:58Those are the three champion signature gatherers.
01:02We had a historic day today in Texas.
01:05We handed in almost just under 250,000 signatures.
01:20That's more than any presidential candidacy in the history of Texas.
01:28And in the history of our country.
01:32The Texas legislature said, change the rules.
01:38During our year-long last session,
01:40double the number of signatures that needed to be collected
01:43because they thought nobody would ever be able to do it.
01:48The pundits, you heard them from the beginning of this campaign,
01:52were saying it would be impossible for us to get on the ballot.
01:57And we got on the ballot in Texas.
01:59If you can get on in Texas, we can get on everywhere.
02:02We can get on everywhere.
02:1645 days to collect 113,000 signatures.
02:20We got them with a double act.
02:25I was just upstairs talking to the dean
02:28and I was just completing the signature.
02:31And they said, we're on our way to New York tonight.
02:34Because New York is an excellent forest.
02:37We have 10 days to complete.
02:40We have 45 days.
02:42The two hardest states are New York and Texas.
02:44We already got moving. We needed New York.
02:46Thank you.
02:55The EMC has done everything in their power to stop us
03:00and they'll continue to do that.
03:02But we are going to get on the ballot in every single state.
03:06I want to thank all of you.
03:16Thank you.
