“John Kerry and I made a promise to the American people that in this election, every vote would count and every vote would be counted,” Edwards said. “Tonight, we are keeping our word and we will fight for every vote. You deserve no less.”
While Edwards spoke to the nation and the crowd at Boston’s Copley Square, Kerry was at his townhome huddled with advisers including fellow Massachusetts Sen. Ted Kennedy and campaign manager Mary Beth Cahill.
