| 0:00.0 | Tonight, after a historic election. |
| 0:07.0 | Thank you, everybody. |
| 0:08.0 | I'll be the next U.S. Senator from Pennsylvania. |
| 0:12.0 | It looks like the reports of my political death have been greatly exaggerated. |
| 0:17.0 | Thank you for a historic landside victory. |
| 0:26.2 | Control of Congress still hanging in the balance as the vote count continues. |
| 0:27.9 | Just hanging in a little bit longer. |
| 0:28.9 | Keep the faith. |
| 0:30.1 | Keep looking up. |
| 0:33.4 | As a new chapter begins for a deeply divided country. |
