奥巴马就中期选举结果发声:称选民想要弥合分裂的政治

华盛顿——美国前总统奥巴马(Barack Obama)11月3日选举夜在社交平台 X 发文,回应民主党在中期选举中赢下众议院与参议院、夺回国会两院控制权的结果。他表示,美国人民今晚发出了明确信息:他们想要一种能把人们团结起来、而不是制造分裂的政治,也想要能为他们所面对的挑战拿出具体解决办法的领导人。
奥巴马说,这样的结果之所以成为可能,是因为全国各地都有出色的候选人挺身而出,其中包括一些一度被认为毫无胜算的选区;这些候选人背景不同、政治观点也不尽相同,但都认同共同的价值观、相信公共服务,并把所在选区与州民众的利益放在首位。他还向两党数以千计的选举工作人员与志愿者致谢,感谢他们保障了选举顺利进行。
奥巴马表示,本届政府还有两年任期,民主党人接下来的工作是卷起袖子,在有能力作出改变的地方作出改变,防止进一步的损害,并为未来打下基础。
在选前数周,奥巴马曾赴 Ohio、Michigan 与 Georgia 等州为民主党候选人助选。据《泰晤士报》报道,他助选过的 Georgia 州参议员候选人 Jon Ossoff 与 Ohio 州的 Sherrod Brown 均已胜选。

Obama Reacts to Midterm Results After Democrats Retake Congress: Voters Want a Politics That Unites
Washington — Former U.S. President Barack Obama reacted on election night, November 3, in a post on X, after Democrats won both the House of Representatives and the Senate and retook control of Congress. He said the American people had sent a clear message: they want a politics that brings people together rather than divides them, and leaders who offer concrete solutions to the challenges they face.
Obama said the results were possible because outstanding candidates stepped forward in every region of the country, including in areas once considered long shots. They came from different backgrounds and held a range of political views, he said, but were united by shared values, a belief in public service and a commitment to putting the people of their districts and states first. He also thanked the thousands of election officials and volunteers from both parties who helped ensure a smooth election.
While the current administration has another two years in office, Obama said, the job now is to roll up sleeves, make changes wherever Democrats have the power to do so, prevent further damage and lay the groundwork for the future.
In the weeks before the election, Obama campaigned for Democratic candidates in states including Ohio, Michigan and Georgia. According to The Times, two Senate candidates he campaigned for, Jon Ossoff of Georgia and Sherrod Brown of Ohio, both won their races.
