TURNER: "We want to be standing there when a new voting rights act for this century is there and the rights that we struggled, that so many lives were taken, so much courage was demonstrated or preserved once again. I turn it back over to you for the questions and thank you very much for all that you and all of your colleagues are doing here today."
UNKNOWN MALE: "Thank you."
DEMOCRATS [sing]: "We will overcome! We will overcome! We will overcome some day. Deep in our hearts I do believe we will overcome some day."
