Volume 4: White Devil Chapter 265 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 the Republican candidate or the Democratic candidate, in short, as long as the candidate has the money to form a professional campaign team, their employees have obtained the performance data of each candidate in tonight's Democratic primary at the first time.
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.
During the entire primary election, there were three 900-second free discussion sessions. Jeff Rush, who had the best performance of the night, grabbed 420 seconds, 540 seconds, and 420 seconds respectively, and always kept the title of the candidate who spoke the most tonight on his head.
You know, free discussion is actually mutual attacks and revelations between candidates. The reason why Jeff Rush can get such an exaggerated speaking time is that he hardly has any pauses. Every time he can seize a word when other candidates open their mouths and quickly counterattack, making the other party speechless while snatching the other party's speaking time into his own hands and focusing the audience's attention on himself.
In addition to Jeff Lavine, the second-best performer tonight was recognized to be former Miami Deputy Mayor Rosario Kennedy. She got 120 seconds of personal speaking time in the first phase of free discussion. Although not as exaggerated as Jeff Lavine's 420 seconds, it was still a very outstanding result compared to the other five people who shared 360 seconds each, with an average of only 72 seconds of personal speaking time per person.
At this time, the host of the late-night news program on TV was discussing Rosario's performance with the commentators. The guests spoke highly of Rosario, starting from her disadvantages as a person of color and a woman, to her efforts in politics over the years, including her performance in this primary election. She was initially overwhelmed by Jeff Lavine's controversial speech, and in the second stage she adjusted her mentality, took steady steps, no longer hesitated, and confronted Jeff Rush head-on many times, winning 180 seconds of personal speaking time, and finally in the third stage she took advantage of the victory and increased her personal speaking time to 240 seconds. These performances proved that this woman is very resilient and will not be knocked down by difficulties, but will become stronger and stronger and never back down.
Martin stood in the lobby of his company, watching the news commentary on TV that praised Rosario. He finally couldn't help it and turned off the TV. He looked at Tommy who was drinking lemon honey water to relieve the discomfort in his throat. "This is completely fake news. The woman was able to get a performance second only to Jeff because we interfered with the signal and let her go. Otherwise, she would have been like everyone else tonight. In the second and third stages, she would have become a mute who couldn't speak.
The reason why Martin dared to say that the news commentary of the TV station at this moment was fake news was naturally because he knew the truth of tonight. Martin didn't know whether other candidates had thought about interfering with Jeff's communicator, but his boss Tommy had thoughtfully arranged people to take the initiative to interfere with and destroy the receiver signals of other candidates.
By interfering with their receivers, Jeff ensured that the candidates could not hear the team members' reminders at the first time. During the moment when they could not hear clearly, Jeff could seize the opportunity to talk incessantly, making those guys look like they were speechless because of Jeff's questioning.
Rosario's performance was getting better and better because Tommy went easy on her in the second and third stages, which gave her the opportunity to get some impression points. However, when the debate was over, Tommy's kindness turned into hypocritical words from the news commentator on TV, saying that she was not afraid of difficulties and that difficulties would only make her stronger.
"Don't watch it as news. This is normal advertising and public relations. The commentator is undoubtedly Rona's man." Tommy lazily leaned back in a chair. "Speaking of which, someone curious will come to talk to you tomorrow and ask what brand of receiver you prepared for Jeff. This is the power of technology. Technology can make everyone on the stage a speaker, or it can make them all dumb."
Paige came in from outside and said to Tommy, "I went to check again and arranged it."
"What's been arranged? Cuban stowaways causing trouble for Jeff? Throwing rotten eggs? Deliberately stopping his car? Causing Jessica to get accidentally injured?" Martin looked at Tommy, then at Paige who walked in, and asked in confusion.
He was aware of all the arrangements that came out of his mouth. Tommy had not hidden them from him. Yes, tomorrow Jeff's family would encounter hostility from the Cubans in the district, which would make him understand the consequences of offending the largest voting group in the district.
Jessica was injured because Cubans maliciously intercepted her while driving, causing her to accidentally crash into a roadside building. In the following election activities, she can sit in a wheelchair and enjoy the treatment of being pushed around by Jeff.
But those Cuban illegal immigrants who will start causing trouble for Jeff's family tomorrow were all arranged and planned by Martin. The traffic accident will not really hurt Jessica. It is nothing more than continuing to increase Jeff's activity, allowing everyone to continue to pay attention to Jeff's experience and election process, and by the way, disgust the Cubans in this district.
Hearing Martin's question, Tommy took a sip of lemonade and said, "Tomorrow is the Republican primary. They are not as chaotic as the Democratic Party. There are seven candidates in the primary, but there are only four in their primary. The last three just want to verify their appeal in the district and have no intention of running for the election. Ileana Letty received 83% of the votes in the previous mock party vote, while the remaining three only received 17% together. Those three guys are just runners-up."
"Have you made any arrangements against that Republican Cuban woman?" Martin frowned. "Looking for trouble with her?"
"Some little tricks that are not worth mentioning." Tommy closed his eyes, holding the lemonade in his hand, and seemed to be thinking about other places. His voice sounded a little absent-minded:
"Tonight, Jeff emerged as a dark horse in the Democratic primary . The one who is tossing and turning in bed tonight is not Rosario, but the Cuban-American female Republican candidate, Ileana Letty."
"With 83% of the votes, I don't think anything can make her uncomfortable." Martin thought for a long time, imitating Tommy's usual way of thinking, but he couldn't figure out why the Republican Cuban woman would be tossing and turning insomnia, because under normal circumstances, if Rosario failed in the primary election, the Cuban voters in the district would only have her as an option, and she would no longer have to worry about Rosario competing with her and taking away the votes of the Cuban voters.
"She should realize 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 spoke slowly:
"She should have seen the performance of Jeff and other Democratic candidates. Unless she has a serious vision problem, she should have realized that Jeff, who foolishly handed the Parkers to her, might be her real opponent. Unfortunately, it is too late. What lies before her now seems like a multiple-choice question."
"That is, whether she wants to cooperate with Rosario, a Cuban-American woman from the Democratic Party, to ensure that she can get the support of all Cuban-American voters. If she is worried that her current vote count is not high enough and chooses to cooperate with Rosario, the condition that Rosario agrees to must be that Ileana Letty or her husband suppresses the Jewish couple's trouble with her. What do you think the Jewish couple's reaction will be if they find out?"
"What if she hadn't worked with Rosario? Wouldn't she have avoided this problem by continuing to advocate for the Parkers?" Martin asked.
Tommy said in a positive tone: "If she continues to uphold justice, then Jeff will thank her for putting justice above her own and not favoring her Cuban compatriots at every public rally. Jeff will continue to curse the Cuban illegal immigrants at the rally while praising her as a Cuban-American opponent worthy of respect and a true American."
"Give Cuban voters who support Rosario a chance to cause trouble for her and divide her votes. The benefit of doing this is that if she wants to slightly withdraw her previous attitude due to the pressure of Cuban voters' votes, we will bite her hard and slowly widen her wound. Don't forget that she is also the owner of a private school. Find a group of parents of children who hate Cubans from her school and ask them to bring their children to her various rallies. Let the children ask her racial questions in an innocent tone to stimulate her until she worries that her Cuban votes are not enough to defeat Jeff. Naturally, she will consider some interests that she didn't want to consider before."
