Federals love the "majority," whether it's the general meeting of shareholders or the federal Congress, they're after the "majority."

Most of the concepts go from the initial "at least two out of three agree" to "at least two out of three agree" to the exact "66.7 percent"

This process has undergone many changes, and finally the number of 66.7 has been determined.

It's 0.1 more than 66.6 infinity, which is exactly equal to "more than two out of three people agree", which is a perfect number!

So in this important vote, people are going after people on their side, "66.7 percent" or more of the total!

The results of the first round of voting came out quickly, and Gladstone's expression was not very good, and his approval rating was less than 60 percent.

Although it seems like everything is stable, who knows if the people sitting in this conference room made any other deals with other people last night, or even in the toilet just now?

No one can say this, no one knows who is the one who stabbed him in the back!

anger?

No, at least he was very close to most.

When many people find that even if they change their stance, they can't change the outcome, they swing back and back.

Yes, the other two only got forty percent together, and there's no point in continuing to support them.

Unless they intend to delay the outcome of the vote for months or even years, which is unlikely.

The war has progressed to the middle stage, and that is the view of some in the Department of Defense, although they have no particularly strong evidence to support this view.

Let's assume that what they say is true. If the war is really halfway through, it means that the war will end soon.

Just a few years.

Once the war is over, if it comes to the end as the victor, the Federation will have the greatest opportunity ever!

No one will allow the Progressive Party to be fighting infighting in the face of such an unprecedented opportunity!

In addition, the current president appears to be a Progressive Party member, but is actually a member of the military, which is still somewhat "dangerous", so this result will not drag on for too long.

The other two actually knew that they were running with them. If it weren't for the fact that the Progressive Party, as the current ruling party in the federation, was also the most potential ruling party, it would need to take the lead.

They didn't even want to run with them.

Being in a campaign like this is definitely the highlight of life, but if it turns out to be a failure, and they knew from the start that it would fail, then it's obviously not pleasant!

But today's situation is indeed a little surprising. Yesterday, most of the people attended the retirement party of the short old man. Everyone was talking and laughing at the time...

The short old man "off the field" showed no other emotion when he heard the answer.

The Progressive Party is not exactly a slate, like Senator Landon and his Langdon Gang, these people may be a small group of people, but the whole committee is made up of many small groups.

You can't ask each of them to be on your side, maybe they will agree on the surface, but they will be against it behind the scenes.

The secret ballot, no one knows where the loophole is!

"Wait a minute...". He waved his hand and lit a cigarette, "Wait, nothing will happen!"

After the first vote, there will be a break, and some of Gladstone's die-hard supporters will start running around.

They will use some words to test whether other people want to play tricks, and to reinforce that people should vote for Gladstone.

Is this shameless?

Do not!

This is a symbol of fairness and freedom!

If canvassing is not allowed, how dogmatic this society will become?

Soon the first fifteen minutes were over in this lively "negotiation", and people returned to their places.

The high-level person who presided over the voting said that there was no result that could be recognized, so a new vote was needed.

Staff started re-sending letters and cards, people started re-filling them, and the votes were counted.

The result is obviously still not very good, even Gladstone's approval rate has dropped from less than the majority to 57%, which means that some people have chosen to backstab him.

The second runner's vote has been boosted, with more than 29 percent of the votes in his favor, and the gap between him and Gladstone looks like there is still a 28 percent gap. .

In fact, it can't be counted at this time!

Because when the No. 2 runner increases by 14%, his approval rate can reach 43%.

Likewise, if that 14% approval rating is subtracted from Gladstone, then after the 14% drop, he's only left with 43%!

So in fact, to catch up with Gladstone, he only needs less than 20% approval rate to catch up or even overtake Gladstone!

This also changed Gladstone's expression somewhat. He looked at the second candidate not far away, and smiled without the slightest anger on his face, "It seems that everyone is more optimistic about you."

Accompanying runner No. 2 also responded with a smile, "The first few votes are not very important, the important thing is the subsequent votes."

It sounds like something comforting or explaining, but it's actually just bullshit, even a faint provocation.

After hearing the meaning of these words, Gladstone suppressed his dissatisfaction and nodded slightly, "So many people support you, you will definitely win to the end, right?"

Accompanying runner number two thought for a while, "How do you want me to answer?"

He looked at Gladstone, "Actually, no matter who they choose, it doesn't make much difference to us, it's just a job!"

Gladstone nodded, "You're right!" He said and stood up, "Sorry, excuse me first."

Then he quickly walked into a lounge, fifteen minutes before the next vote.

In addition to the short old man, there was an ordinary Progressive Party committee staff member in the room.

They were talking when Gladstone came in, but stopped because he came in.

After he closed the door, his expression naturally revealed some.

"...He must be doing little tricks behind his back!" His face was ugly, "I knew he wouldn't be safe!"

The short old man sighed lightly, "Just now... tell me that they are testing, and if they get more, they will launch a more violent attack."

"But we are not without good news, at least we got a part of the list..."

He said and handed a piece of paper full of names to Gladstone, "If you can solve these people, what belongs to you will belong to you!"

In fact, he still hasn't said a word, if he can't figure it out, then it's very likely that he will throw away what belongs to him!

This is actually the most normal scene in the committee.

Senator Langdon, who was also invited to talk to the side at this time.

"Landon, what do you think of these two votes?"

The person who asked him the question found a corner with him on the grounds of smoking a cigarette together.

He asked the question after a cigarette had been scattered.

This guy is also a senator, slightly older, in his early sixties.

The age is actually just right for a senator, and while people like younger people, he's just the right age in terms of politics.

While he has experienced enough things, he still has enough contacts and accumulated a lot of wealth. He is an age who can do something for this country, if he is willing to do something for this country!

Senator Langdon shook his head. "It's stuck, it looks like there are some small changes."

The old senator nodded solemnly, "In the beginning, they were just testing, but now the testing has turned into a preliminary attack. People find that they are not without opportunities, and I am afraid it will be more difficult in the future!"

Senator Langdon may not have understood what he said before, but now he fully understands it.

When the first vote failed, it actually gave a lot of swingers an idea. If they can't beat the other runners at once, why don't they try it?

Speculation, whether it is political speculation or capital speculation, is in pursuit of the greatest return at the least cost, and there is nothing more amazing than the return of speculation!

The rate of return on Gladstone's side is actually not great. It's like the emperor passing the throne to the eldest prince. No matter how much the ministers agree, they won't gain too much trust and dependence from the future emperor.

Because they did not play any role in the transfer of power!

On the contrary, if the second prince, who had no hope of inheriting the throne, got the throne because of the instigation of these ministers~lightnovelpub.net~ What he is most grateful for is the ministers who supported him in the ascendance, he will unconditionally trust and rely on these people, of course one It must have started like this.

So when the first vote failed, new speculators appeared immediately.

These people don't even need someone to lobby, they just get swayed because now what they see and do is not wasted effort!

The results of the second vote also confirmed this. Everyone is tacitly moving a boulder. Now that they have a chance to get more rewards, how could they give up?

If the result of the third vote is worse, it is very likely that this vote will be delayed!

These Senators Langdon knew very well that his Congressional experience had taught him a lot that wasn't in the books.

He didn't speak, and the old senator continued, "We all hope to be on the right path, but there is a fog in front of us, maybe we should wait a little longer, the fog will eventually disperse one day..."

Senator Langdon nodded thoughtfully.
