Blackstone Code - Chapter 1779
Lynch laughed after hearing this, “No problem, Mr. Gladstone, if I have the ability to do something for you, I will do it for you.”
Gladstone gave Lynch an inconclusive answer, when is the right time, and if such an appropriate time arises, what kind of responsibilities will be added?
Let her do a little more work, or let her be responsible for more work?
He could not give an accurate answer clearly, and the answer that Lynch gave him was very ambiguous.
Gladstone on the other end of the phone frowned. He knew a lot of people, capitalists, politicians, and people in the military.
His grandfather and his father laid a solid foundation for him to enter this important position, and his own efforts have made him always see himself as a future high-level figure.
He cultivates himself, trains himself, and he knows very well that some things cannot be said too much.
Not only to avoid saying too much and setting too high expectations for others, but also to avoid saying too much but not realizing it, and eventually some unpleasant things will inevitably happen.
He felt that his statement was very accurate.
He could never guarantee that Catherine would become the governor or something in the future. Ms. Tracy became the governor because she was the “standard” of federal female voters, and her uncle was the patriarch.
The dual influence of politics and religion, coupled with the promotion of the tide of the times, required such a female governor, and she appeared.
Otherwise, she would not have any extremes at all. In this male-dominated world, they would not allow any women to challenge and steal their power!
Ms. Tracey may not be the only one, but in terms of status, she may be the highest!
Gladstone was not very satisfied with Lynch’s perfunctory answer, just like Lynch was not very satisfied with his answer. Everyone’s heart was as clear as pure crystal, and they all knew what the other party wanted.
But the one who didn’t want to just agreed, he still had some persistence and restraint of his own.
The other one would never make a loss-making business, let him give in first, which is even more impossible!
Gladstone pretended he didn’t hear Lynch’s words, and his voice was still gentle to thank Lynch for supporting him, and casually said that he would invite Lynch to get together when he was free.
Soon, he hung up the phone, and Lynch on the other side looked at the receiver in his hand and shook his head with a smile.
It’s a **** seller’s market right now, and in another world’s parlance, it’s a rare commodity!
He is in no hurry.
Two days passed quickly. On the third day, the Progressive Party committee meeting was held again. There were no other proposals. It was to continue the vote that had not been answered before.
In the past few days, everyone is very busy, not busy with work, but busy on phone calls, meeting other people quietly across the distance.
Even the expression of the third candidate has changed.
Now the situation is becoming more and more uncertain. Candidate No. 3 has been thinking about it for a while in the past two days, and he may not have no chance at all!
Although the nature of his work keeps him out of contact with so many capitalists and does not have much power, he is a high-ranking member of the Progressive Party.
There is still influence within the Progressive Party, and it is these members of the Party who will decide who among them will be the next Chairman of the Progressive Party Committee!
They can’t get the capitalists to vote, as long as it’s a party insider, why doesn’t he give it a try?
Everyone was looking forward to the outcome of the vote, including Senator Landon himself, who was curious what the outcome would be today.
Last night, Lynch called him and asked him to vote for the third candidate.
Just now, when the small group met, he also asked everyone to vote for the third candidate.
Abstentions are counted as valid votes, but not in the total number of votes.
For example, if there are 100 people voting, 67 people need to agree to form a “majority”, but if in this vote, 50 people choose to abstain.
Then to form a “majority”, it is not calculated according to the total number of 100 people, but the total number of non-abstaining votes in the valid votes.
That is to say, another fifty votes for or against are counted, then only thirty-four people are needed to seal the victory.
They voted abstentions before, but now, in order to avoid accidents, they must make their votes valid and count the votes, so voting for the third candidate is obviously the wisest choice.
The first round of voting was over quickly, and the process of counting the votes was not long. Many people felt that the winner should be between Gladstone and the second candidate.
But when all the votes were counted, some people even laughed after being stunned for a while!
Gladstone’s approval rating is only 41%, which is actually very dangerous, and he may lose what he wants anytime, anywhere.
The No. 2 candidate has a 37 percent approval rating, which is also very dangerous.
Whether it is Gladstone or the No. 2 candidate, they can be said to be facing elimination in a one-on-one vote.
But the problem is, it’s not a one-to-one vote, it’s a one-to-three vote!
Candidate No. 3 has a 32% approval rating. In fact, this approval rating is often meaningless, as long as it does not exceed 34%, 1% and 33.9% it’s the same!
But in a three-person election, the number is delicate!
If he works hard, he may surpass others.
If he just keeps the current vote rate, then the other two can’t win!
This is almost the best vote of the Progressive Party in the past 100 years. It seems that no one of the three can surpass the other.
Compared to Gladstone’s obviously unsightly face, the second candidate and the third candidate seemed very harmonious, and the two even congratulated each other.
The rest time that followed was another time for people to canvass each other, promise benefits and betrayal.
Countless phone calls were made from the Capitol, and many people outside learned of this ridiculous news immediately!
I thought that everything would only be a winner among two people, but I didn’t expect another one to come!
There is another one, which means that there are more variables. Many capitalists and politicians have not placed bets on the No. 3 candidate.
Now there is one more choice, and they don’t know who is the most suitable to choose for a while.
Senator Landon and his small group also got together, and they weren’t under too much pressure.
No matter how they choose, they are not members of a certain committee or a certain political force.
They are the people of the capitalists, and they are the representatives of the capitalists. As long as Lynch doesn’t fall, they won’t be shy in the future!
In the current situation, at least ten years, Lynch is difficult to fall.
As for what will happen ten years from now, who the **** would think that far?
Lynch also knew the news, and he immediately understood that many people’s choices were the same as his.
According to previous reports and news, about 20% of people chose to wait and see.
They would have abstained from voting before, but this time, they are watching.
This puts a lot of pressure on the others. If this 20% bet on Gladstone, he can basically seal the victory.
Bet on the No. 2 candidate, and Gladstone is likely to be eliminated.
These wait-and-see forces became the decisive force in the final announcement of the outcome!
During the call, Lynch’s answer to them was to continue to vote for the third candidate, and he judged that today’s vote will still be postponed on another day.
There is no result in this situation!
It also makes it easy for everyone.
Many people are very relaxed.
The results of the first round of voting were obvious to everyone. Whether it was Gladstone or the No. 2 candidate, the results of the canvassing in the past few days did not have much effect.
In other words, the rewards they promised were not enough, and they couldn’t make those who wait and see stand firmly on their side, which led to today’s results.
In this case, everyone is adjusting dynamically and will continue to postpone it until “most” get what they want, and then unify their positions.
Facts were indeed as Lynch had judged. Four votes were held. After the last two results were exactly the same, Gladstone and the other two candidates, as well as the top committee members, knew that there would be no results today, so they chose. Continue to postpone.
It is still postponed for 48 hours, that is, the vote will be held on the third day.
Gladstone’s expression was solemn when he left. One opponent was enough to make him irritable, but now there is another one.
When he got back, he was sitting in a car with the short old man, and he didn’t complain.
Since he was a child, his grandfather told him that guns and bullets are better than mouths, and complaining can’t solve any problems.
He’s just very annoyed by those who have been showing support for him~www.mtlnovel.com~ but not giving real action.
The short old man seemed a little more relaxed than the other day.
“It’s actually a good thing.” He looked back from the window and landed on Gladstone.
Logically speaking, Gladstone should be regarded as his grand-nephew, but the relationship is so far away that even the law may not recognize them as relatives.
That’s one of the reasons he’s been helping Gladstone.
“I was worried the first two days, I was worried… He won over all these people.”
“But you see, those people are not on his side, at least not until you let them down completely!”
“They’re telling you in their own way that they can win, as long as you give them what they want.”
“If we win this part, as long as your approval rating is back above 60 percent, he will give up on his own.”
Gladstone figured something out, and he marveled at the old man’s political wisdom and reaction, and at the same time a little distressed.
“But there are some things that I can’t promise them, and I don’t know who they are!”
The old man laughed twice, “Soon they will jump out by themselves, don’t worry!”
