Chapter 1183 The Last Game

Many things happen every day.

Someone is born and someone dies.

Someone found love, someone just ended a relationship.

Everyone is the protagonist of this world, but also a supporting role in this world, performing different scripts and feeling different psychological processes.

There is no one who can't live without it. If there is, it's just that this person didn't think about it for a while.

Mr. Truman was paying attention to the progress of the talks, Charlie (sister) only wanted to get the amnesty order as soon as possible, and Mr. Wycliffe was thinking about how to use his existing advantages to settle the matter.

Lynch, on the other hand, has already returned to Sabine City.

The election of federal city councilors is directly elected by citizens, and different numbers of councilors are elected according to the size of the city and the resident population.

This also means that smaller cities will have relatively few MPs, while larger cities will have quite a few MPs.

In a city like Bupain, in every election, at least a dozen to twenty people must be selected from dozens of lists.

Big cities have the benefits of big cities. Once selected, the power in their hands will be greater, and the level of access to them will be higher.

At least, big capitalists in big cities and capitalists in remote rural cities are completely different concepts.

But small cities are not without the benefits of small cities. Looking at the long-term re-elected city councilors in the federal government, the opportunities all happen in small cities.

The political environment and stance of small cities are relatively simple. As long as you have a little energy, you have a great chance of winning the election and being re-elected.

The term of the city councilors is two years, and they can be re-elected indefinitely at most. In some places, the city councilors themselves are an important economic pillar of the city. It is normal for these people to work for 20 years.

This time, there was a person Lynch paid more attention to, Catherine, in the direct election of Sabine city councilors.

The election is just this week, and there is still the last speech left. After this speech is over, it is time to face the polls.

No matter how nicely a politician speaks, it will not have any impact on him. Only public opinion is the key.

What you say sounds good, but things often happen that the people don't buy it. How to please the people and win the trust of the people has become the ability that federal politicians must master.

Everyone has their own method. Some people participate in various political programs, and some have more interactions with voters. Everyone has different methods. The only thing that may be the same is their purpose.

"I'm a little nervous!", Catherine sat in front of the makeup mirror, and a makeup artist was making the final adjustments for her.

She actually looks quite mature, a girl in her 20s with professional attire and makeup, looks a little older than she actually is.

People are sometimes very strange. They always think that young people are more motivated, and they often say that young people should be given more opportunities. After all, young people are the future of this society.

But when it comes to choosing who will be responsible for one's own future, the elderly are more inclined.

Their views will change at this moment, thinking that those older people have experienced a lot of things, they have more mature experience and more experience, and only these people can grasp every choice well.

Therefore, during the election speech, Catherine's appearance will be more mature, and she will be more rational and intellectual in the workplace, rather than a young girl.

The former university journalism professor next to her looked at her and was very satisfied, "You have done better than all the peers I have seen, impeccable, you know?"

"It's your opponent who should be nervous, not you. You just need to walk on stage with a smile on your face and beat them calmly!"

In fact, from the very beginning, they all knew that the probability of winning the election was very high, very high, but they still felt a little nervous when they got to this point.

Even with the support of the mayor and the governor, as well as some policy promotion by Lynch, it ultimately depends on the attitude of the citizens.

Catherine must win the trust of these people before they will tick her name in the next ballot.

As the time approached, the former university journalism professor opened the door of the room, "The time is up, it's your turn to appear!"

Catherine took a deep breath, pulled herself together, got up and walked towards the door.

As she entered the stadium, many citizens cheered.

People sitting in the stands greeted her, and she kept responding to everyone.

Politicians always have to show how close they are to ordinary people and how far away they are. They may be only a few steps away from each other, but they have no chance to speak face to face in this life.

Catherine stepped into the center of the stadium. This is the Sabine City Stadium, and it is also one of the best stadiums in Sabine City and even York State. Its current property rights belong to Lynch.

Looking at the spectators who were nearly half-occupied in the stands, Catherine felt that it was not easy.

The entire stand can support 3 people watching at the same time. It is normal to be dissatisfied. This is not a weekend or a rest day. It is actually very rare to have so many people come at such a time.

Other councilors, including city councilors from other regions, will rent some small venues when they make speeches, or even not rent small venues, and directly speak in the open air.

This will at least fill up a space in front of them and prove their worth.

The fact that so many people can come today is also related to the new ideas that Catherine promoted during this period-education reform.

Only education reform can allow so many people to gather here during non-holidays.

Today's Sabine City may have fewer pedestrians on the road, because those who have no work have come here.

At the very center of the stadium, Catherine stood behind the podium, she pursed her lips and smiled, tilting her head slightly, "Thank you everyone for taking the time to come over, I was still thinking about what to do if there was no one outside. "

Very flattering opening remarks, in fact, how could she not know the situation outside?

People kept telling her how many people came and what the specific situation was.

All she needs is a less intense, very gentle opening statement that can bring people closer and soothe emotions.

After people's good-natured laughter continued for a while, she also sorted out some speech scripts on the podium, the watch used to remind her of the time, and other things.

"I know people are very concerned about education, and it's something I'm very concerned about, and in fact if you know me enough, you know what we've all been through."

Some viewers immediately said those things. She and Lynch couldn't go to college because they had no money.

She nodded. Senior politicians may not like to be interrupted in their speeches, but for politicians at the bottom of society, interacting with voters may be one of their ways to please voters.

"Yes, you're right, we can't afford college because of poverty."

"At that time, Lynch and I thought that someone had to do something. At that time, we pinned our hopes on others, but the facts told us that even if we prayed every day, it would not change everything in the end."

"If you can't go to college, you still can't go to college."

"And this has become one of the motivations for me to stand here today, education, and education reform!"

Getting to the heart of a speech quickly with a few simple sentences is the way most speeches are made, and voters don't exactly want to chat with politicians.

An occasional exchange of words can strengthen the bond between each other, but chatting all the time is a waste of time.

Everyone wants politicians to be more efficient, obviously chatter and blah blah blah blah blah.

People started clapping, that's all they cared about.

"What I thought was the most unfair at the time was that some people, with a letter of recommendation, could not even do a single arithmetic problem, let alone prove themselves, could be admitted to a prestigious university and receive a full scholarship."

"It's unfair, I've been angry and I've been silent about it."

"I may not have this ability before, but now, it's time to make a change."

"I can't change the entire Federation, but I can change the situation here in Sabine City. I hope people in other places will forgive me for my selfishness. This is my hometown."

"If I can succeed here, then I will try to spread the successful experience and successful model, so that more people can benefit from it!"

Next is some specific measures. In fact, there is no special content in the education reform itself.

It is nothing more than enabling more people to go to school and afford it, but it is such a seemingly simple problem that has plagued the Federation for many years.

It's still a problem to this day.

People listened carefully, it was in every one of their own interests, and they were more serious than ever.

Who can live without a child, and who can resist the temptation to go to college?
Going to college, in this day and age, means good jobs, access to the middle class, and the realization of the Federal Dream, if only a fraction of it.

The atmosphere gradually heated up, because what she said sounded more likely to be true.

Social universities with lower thresholds and more tolerant student loans, if these can be realized, then the education reform that Catherine said is not a problem at all.

Even they, their children, can benefit from this change.

Such a warm atmosphere was pushed to a climax with the appearance of Lynch.

"I didn't know you were coming." Catherine also looked at Lynch in surprise and surprise, she really didn't know.

After the two embraced, Lynch walked to the podium. He looked at the audience with a mischievous smile on his face, "I didn't tell her..."

Just a simple sentence makes people laugh inexplicably, sometimes the role of personal charm is really too great.

He supported the podium and kept his sunny smile, "I know some people are doubting whether what she said just now can be realized, but the purpose of my coming here is to tell you that it will definitely become a reality!"
