Chapter 269 Sleepless Night
Tonight is a sleepless night for many people in the 18th District or in Miami as a whole.
The debate has just ended. Regardless of whether it is a Republican candidate or a Democratic candidate, as long as it is a candidate who has the money to set up a professional campaign team, their employees immediately obtained the performance data of each candidate in tonight's Democratic primary.
Various local TV stations in Miami also broadcast news related to this primary election, and the name most mentioned by TV hosts was Democratic plumber Jeff Rush.
In the entire primary election, there were three 900-second free discussion periods. Jeff Rush, who performed best throughout the night, grabbed 420 seconds, 540 seconds, and 420 seconds respectively. Putting the title of the candidate who spoke the most tonight firmly on his head.
You know, free discussion is actually about the candidates criticizing each other and exposing each other. Jeff Rush was able to get such an exaggerated speaking time because he barely paused and could catch other candidates every time they spoke. Use a certain word to quickly counterattack, leaving the other party speechless, and at the same time grabbing the other party's speech time into your own hands, and also focusing the audience's attention on you.
In addition to Jeff LaVine, the person whose performance tonight is recognized as the second highest is Rosario Kennedy, the former deputy mayor of Miami. She got 120 seconds of personal speech time during the free discussion time in the first stage. Although not as exaggerated as Jeff LaVine's 420 seconds, compared to the other five who shared 360 seconds equally, each person only had an average of 72 seconds of personal speech time, which is already a very outstanding result. .
At this time, on the late-night news program on the TV, the host was discussing Rosario's performance with the commentator. The guest spoke highly of Rosario, considering that she is a person of color and a disadvantaged woman. Speaking of which, she has made various efforts in the past few years since she entered politics, including her performance in this primary election. From being overwhelmed by Jeff Lavine's controversial speech at the beginning, to adjusting her mentality in the second stage, she has been steady and steady. He hesitated again, but faced off against Jeff Rush many times, and won 180 seconds of personal speech time. In the final third stage, he pursued the victory and increased the number of personal speech time to 240 seconds. These Her performance proves that this woman is very resilient and will not be knocked down by difficulties. Instead, she becomes stronger and stronger and never backs down.
Martin stood in the lobby of his company, watching the news comments praising Rosario on the TV. He finally couldn't help but turned off the TV and looked at Tommy, who was drinking lemon and honey water to relieve his throat discomfort: "This is completely fake news. That woman was able to get the performance second only to Jeff because our signal jamming let her go. Otherwise, she would have been like everyone else tonight, in the second stage and the third stage. In the third stage, he is completely reduced to a mute who cannot speak."
The reason why Martin dared to say that the news comments on the TV station at the moment were fake news was naturally because he knew the truth tonight. Martin didn't know whether the other candidates had thought of interfering with Jeff's communicator, but his boss Tommy made thoughtful arrangements. Human hands, take the initiative to jam and destroy the receiver signals of other candidates.
By jamming their receivers, making sure those candidates can't hear the team members' reminders the first time, and using those moments when they can't hear clearly, Jeff can seize the opportunity to ramble on and make those guys look like they're He was left speechless by Jeff's questioning.
And Rosario's performance was getting better and better. It was Tommy who let her go in the second and third stages, which gave her a chance to get some impression points. As a result, when the debate was over, this kind of kindness from Tommy , actually turned into the hypocritical words said by the news commentator on the TV that she is not afraid of difficulties and that difficulties will only make her stronger.
"Don't watch it as news. This is normal advertising and public relations behavior. The commentator is undoubtedly Rona's person." Tommy lazily sat on a chair: "Speaking of which, there should be something tomorrow. Curious people will talk to you and ask you what brand of receiver you prepared for Jeff. This is the power of technology. Technology can make everyone on the stage a speaker, and it can also make them all dumb. "
Page came in from the outside and said to Tommy: "I went to confirm again and made arrangements."
He knew all the arrangements that came out of his mouth. Tommy did not hide them from him. Yes, tomorrow Jeff's family will encounter the hostility of the Cubans in this district, making him understand the consequences of offending the largest group of voters in this district.
Jessica was injured because a Cuban maliciously intercepted her while driving, causing her to accidentally hit a roadside building. During the next election campaign, she was able to sit in a wheelchair and enjoy the treatment of Jeff pushing her. But those illegal Cuban immigrants who are going to cause trouble for Jeff's family tomorrow are all arranged and planned by Martin. The traffic accident will not really hurt Jessica. It is just to continue to increase Jeff's activity and let everyone continue to pay attention to Jeff. The experience and campaign process, and by the way disgusting Cubans in this district.
Hearing Martin's question, Tommy took a sip of lemonade: "Tomorrow is the Republican primary. They are not as chaotic as the Democratic Party. There are seven candidates in the primary. There are only four candidates in their primary, but the last three They all just want to verify their appeal in the district and have no intention of actually running for election. In the previous simulated intra-party vote, Illyana Leti received as high as 83% of the votes. The remaining three were added together. 17%, those three guys are just running around.”
“Have you made arrangements for that Republican Cuban woman?” Martin frowned: “To cause trouble for her?”
"Some little tricks that are not worth mentioning." Tommy closed his eyes, holding lemonade in his hand, as if his thoughts were drifting to other places, and his voice sounded a little absent-minded:
“Tonight Jeff suddenly emerged as a new leader with the help of the Democratic party’s primary election. The person who is tossing and turning tonight is not Rosario, but the Republican female candidate of Cuban descent, Ileana Leti.”
"83% of the vote, I don't think there is anything that can make her uncomfortable." Martin imitated Tommy's usual way of thinking and thought for a long time. He couldn't think of why the Republican Cuban woman would be tossing and turning, because under normal circumstances , if Rosario fails in the primary election, the Cuban voters in this district will only have her as a choice. They no longer have to worry about Rosario competing with her and taking away the votes of Cuban voters.
“She should realize by now that the old Jewish couple I gave her would make her very uncomfortable.” Tommy held a mouthful of lemonade for a while, and after swallowing it, he said slowly:
"She should have seen the performance of Jeff and other Democratic candidates. As long as there is no serious vision problem, she should understand that Jeff, who foolishly handed over the Parkers to her before, is probably her real opponent. Unfortunately, he has already It’s too late, what’s before her now seems like a multiple-choice question.”
"That is whether she should cooperate with Rosario, a Cuban-American woman in the Democratic Party, to ensure that she can get the support of all Cuban-American voters. If she is worried that her vote count is not high enough today and chooses to cooperate with Rosario, Rosario The condition for O's agreement must be that Illyana Leti or her husband suppress the fact that the old Jewish couple is causing trouble for her. How do you think the old Jewish couple would react if they knew about it?"
“What if she hadn’t cooperated with Rosario? Wouldn’t she have avoided this problem by continuing to seek justice for the Parkers?” Martin asked.
Tommy said with certainty: "If she continues to uphold justice, then Jeff will thank her at every subsequent public meeting for her righteousness in killing relatives and not favoring fellow Cubans. Jeff will continue to scold Cuban smuggling at the rally. while praising her, a Cuban-American, as a worthy opponent and a true American."
"The advantage of giving Cuban voters who support Rosario a chance to find trouble with her and divide her votes is that as long as she wants to retract her previous attitude due to the pressure from Cuban voters, she will be killed by us. Biting her tightly, her wounds slowly expanded. Don't forget, she was also the owner of a private school. She found a group of parents of children from her school who hated Cubans and asked them to bring their children to attend her various gatherings. Let the child ask her questions about race in an innocent tone, stimulating her until she worries that the Cuban vote base in her hands is not enough to defeat Jeff, and she will naturally consider some benefit cooperation that she did not want to consider before."
I have a toothache, and it hurts so much that I can’t concentrate. Let’s get up during the day and read another chapter. This chapter has too few words.
