Chapter 155: The Duality of Elephant and Donkey(2/3)
Robert was helpless. He didn't expect that this kid would even dare to say such things in this situation, and he would have the nerve to say them.
Peggy on the other side was even more speechless and wanted to find a place to hide.
In front of the three most important elders in the family, Abel said and treated him like this.
She didn't know how to face the three elders!
"Haha~"
Morgenthau looked at him with different expressions, but overall he didn't have a good expression.
Abel laughed and said, "Sorry, I was joking. I was just joking~ Actually, I am very satisfied with today's cocktail party. I am also very grateful to Paige. Don't look at me like this, I was really here just now
joke."
His smile, his painting style is obviously completely different from the four Morgenthau.
Brothers Rhodes and Raleigh looked at Abel at this time.
They had a bison from Texas that broke into their valuable horse pen.
Among the purebred and valuable horses, the Texas bison, which seems to have mad cow disease, runs rampant, teasing and provoking the feeling of being the leader of the herd.
At this moment, the two brothers had such a sense of sight.
They don't want to stay any longer.
Rod said directly to his brother Robert:
"Sorry. Robert, you will be the one to receive Mr. Smith. I'll go over there and see if Mr. Morgan and the others need anything."
Raleigh also said, "I'll go there too."
Robert wanted to say that he wanted to go there too.
However, his brothers smiled at Abel and left without waiting for him to agree.
Now only Robert, Peggy, and Abel were left.
Looking at Robert with a dull expression, he looked like he wanted to complain but had nothing to complain about.
Abel said softly:
"Okay. Robert, I know you may be a little depressed now. But you have to know that for a period of time before this, I was as depressed as you are now because of you."
His voice was calm and low, matching his handsome appearance that was easy to impress.
Robert and Peggy both looked at him in a daze.
"That's right. I actually did it on purpose just now. Who told you to do that to Smith Capital in the first place?"
"I took revenge just now." He said with a smile.
"Didn't we reconcile already?!" Peggy, who had barely spoken a word the whole night, said this to Abel for the first time tonight.
She actually wanted to say - I had a very hard time that day in order to reconcile with you!
"Not before. I am very stingy. But now that I see you are so depressed, I think we have reconciled."
Abel said of course.
Peggy was so angry that he was speechless.
On the contrary, Robert finally laughed softly.
"Okay." Robert said, "It was our fault before. So now the matter is considered even?"
"It's even." Abel nodded.
His look made Peggy angry again.
Robert, on the other hand, was very open-minded.
Although I was a little depressed just now, it has gotten better now.
Robert smiled and said: "Then can we say some normal words next?"
Abel nodded.
Robert made a relieved expression, and the old man looked at Abel.
"So, Abel, is it okay if I call you this? You and Paige have become friends. And Paige is my most beloved granddaughter."
"Of course you can."
"Okay. Abel, have you read the note I gave you last time?"
"I've seen it. I must thank you for the reminder, Robert." Abel admitted frankly.
Robert nodded again. The old man lowered his voice and said at a level that only the three people present could hear:
"Then do you know who it is?"
"I have some guesses."
Abel looked at Robert: "Do you know who it is?"
Robert nodded and admitted.
Abel immediately said: "Katherine Jones?"
Robert looked a little surprised, and the old man nodded quickly.
"Only one?"
"There is only one piece of information I have learned."
"But..." Robert said: "According to the latest news I learned, fbl is going to take back this eye. As for the reason, it has to do with the election. There is a high probability that your guy from Texas will take office."
Today is already the 11th, and the general election has started four days ago.
The competition between the two candidates is fierce.
But by this time, the results can already be seen.
The market situation in &0 can be said to be very intense.
At the beginning, the Donkey Party, with 267 electoral votes, was ahead of the Elephant Party, which received 246 votes.
But Florida still has 25 electoral votes.
These 25 votes will determine the real winner this year.
This instantly put Florida into the national spotlight.
Data shows that in Florida,
The Donkey Party is only about 1,800 votes behind the Elephant Party.
Because the difference in the number of votes was too small, a recount was conducted in accordance with Florida law.
Subsequently, the BBC reported that technical problems with Florida's ballots attracted people's attention.
First of all, Florida uses "hanging hole ballots." If the holes are not completely punched, there will be hole chips left, and even only punch marks will be left on the ballot, which requires manual verification again.
Secondly, Florida uses a "butterfly ballot" with the candidate's names on both sides and the punch hole in the middle, which will also confuse local voters.
After a recount, Florida announced that the Elephant Party had narrowly won.
&The ticket fell into the Xiang party house.
&246, more than 267.
However, the Donkey Party immediately requested some counties in Florida to conduct a recount on the grounds that there were technical problems with the ballots.
In order to consolidate its vote advantage, the Elephant Party held the election on November 11.
That is, today, a lawsuit was filed with the Federal District Court for the Southern District of Florida to stop the manual counting of votes, but it was rejected.
Now the two sides have opened up another battlefield, which is to use litigation to determine this year's victory.
This is very American. Aren’t the elite professions in America just lawyers and doctors?
On the surface, the Donkey Party still has a chance to win.
Because the lawsuit has not officially started yet.
But as long as someone is a little wiser.
Look up and see the attributes of those sitting in the Supreme Court.
You can understand that this year's victory has actually been decided.
After all, in this country, no matter what level of litigation.
As long as the stalemate persists, we will eventually go to the Supreme Court.
Whoever has the loudest voice in the Supreme Court will be the winner.
At present, the Elephant Party's voice is obviously louder.
The outcome is already determined.
Smart people all know who will win this year.
