State House Minority Leader Chad Campbell said the Democratic Party’s celebration at the Renaissance Hotel is a way to thank volunteers and donors.

“It’s a night for all of us,” he said. “It’s just a good time for everyone to get together and watch the results.”

Campbell said the Democrats are optimistic but realistic.

“I’m hoping we pick up seats from the federal level to the state level,” Campbell added, “but right now we’re going to have a long night ahead of us.”
