People from all over the world felt the unique "charm" of the federal election for the first time!
Nine major casinos set their odds around [-] candidates for governor. These [-] candidates had to go through high-intensity voting in December, and finally only seven were left to enter the real list of candidates.

The entire Slem seems to be building momentum around the general election. In addition to the gladiatorial arena, horse racing and other large game events that will be broadcast on television, some less important programs are taking up time.

Twenty candidates have successively released their campaign manifestos on television and radio. The floats on the street that used to carry passengers are now occupied by the gubernatorial candidates.

On the busiest streets, you can even see three teams of floats and candidate teams belonging to three different camps on the floats, working hard to promote!

For activities such as taking photos to get chips, shaking hands to get chips, filling out questionnaires to get chips, etc., you can see one within a few steps.

Although the final decision-making power for the gubernatorial candidates here does not lie with the local government, but with the federal presidential palace, public opinion still exists!
Moreover, the federal politicians are very cunning. They hired very professional consulting companies and paid sky-high prices to let them monitor Slem's popular support rate intensively.

It does not determine who will be the final governor, but it can influence the decision of the federal president!
If he completely ignores the support of public opinion and chooses a candidate with low approval ratings, some minor problems will inevitably arise.

For example, someone will "trouble" him and ask him questions like "how did you decide to choose a candidate who lacks popular support to be governor".

This kind of question is very difficult to answer, it is the same for everyone!

If Connor answered his thoughts and reasons positively, the media, as well as the public, would be able to find a lot of reasons to prove that Connor was completely justifying his "willfulness".

There must be some shady behind-the-scenes transactions behind this, such as the winning candidate giving Connor a lot of money or something.

Or is there any more hidden benefit transmission, otherwise why would he elect someone with no approval rating?

If Connor avoids answering this question, the media and the public will cheer, because Connor doesn't know how to answer, he has a guilty conscience!
When politicians need it, public opinion is a panacea in federal politics. There is nothing that public opinion can't solve!
If there is, then severely hold public opinion hostage and squeeze hard!
The harder it is squeezed, the more public opinion becomes boiling and the more difficult it is for the opponent to resist!
But when politicians don't need it, it's like a piece of butt paper, except for toilets and sewers, there is almost nowhere to put it!
As the city with the largest population and contributing 90.00% of the state's tax revenue, Slem must be the top priority in the publicity.

Even the girls from the modeling agency were wearing customized clothes!

Fern also asked Lynch for instructions on this matter. A candidate for governor hoped that the girls in Fern's modeling agency could help him promote him from clients during the work process.

And put on their customized clothes——

On the whole, it is still a fun type of clothes, but where there is fabric, there is a picture printed on it...

For this reason, the governor candidate is willing to spend 15 yuan each time as a service fee.

The company gets nine dollars, the girls get six dollars, and all they have to do is say a slogan at the moment before entering the main scene.

It is similar to "...Mr. is committed to the economic construction of Slem and even the whole state, and promises to provide us with more reliable guarantees for various service measures. Only supporting Mr.... is our most correct choice!" and so on.

Girls don’t mind earning an extra six dollars each time. It may not seem like a lot, but it’s actually not a lot every day, every week, or every month.

As for the company, I don't even care.

Fern has almost [-] girls in his hands, and the daily business volume is about [-] to [-] orders.

This kind of activity will not last for too long, about two weeks, and the total investment cost is 500 million.

There are nineteen modeling agencies in Slem. If one person invests in all of them... he will definitely not be able to invest in them. Investing in one or two is the most normal choice for everyone.

Lynch did not stop him. He would not object to such a pure gift of money, and Ozil would not have any influence on the modeling agency.

The female ticket buyers will not lose interest because the girls are wearing special clothes, nor will there be no follow-up because the girls need to complete a sentence in the agreement.

Maybe these female ticket holders will arouse special interests or maybe... do terrible things with those avatars?

People’s sexual fetishes these days are always so unique and unexpected that people are surprised!
"The total investment in this candidate's publicity campaign may be around 5000 million to [-] million..."

Catherine put down the document in her hand and looked at Lynch with a look of shock on her face, "This is almost three times more than the campaign funds invested in the presidential campaign!"

"They're just crazy!"

When Connor participated in the election, the total campaign funds were less than 4000 million, but Lynch increased his investment.

The campaign funds of his opponents are only more than 2000 million, and this figure is already the most invested figure in the past years!
If the total campaign funds invested by each candidate in the federal presidential election exceed [-] million, it would be considered a very hot election year.

For example, the total campaign funding for the year Mr. Trueman won was less than 500 million!But who would have thought that here, for a governor, [-] candidates would invest a total of about [-] million to [-] million.

If they save this money, they can have an arm wrestling with Connor during the local mid-term elections!

But they, these people, just put their money here so seemingly casually!

Catherine was shocked. She knew that her position as governor was very special, but she had never had a clear understanding until this moment!
Lynch leaned on the sofa, crossed his legs, and chatted with her about this topic, "Politicians and capitalists are highly consistent to a certain extent, and they are all pursuing higher rates of return."

“Campaign funds for presidential elections have always been the largest investment among federal campaigns at all levels, because every participant knows very well that the money invested in the election can be earned back exponentially as long as they win.”

"So they are very willing to invest. This is an 'investment' behavior with low risk and high return."

"What's happening here is actually the same thing, $20 billion a year in local taxes that the state government can decide how to use, it can bring benefits to the governor, and the people behind the governor, far more than they are investing now."

"If you invest 2000 million, there is a certain possibility of touching the 20 billion. Why not give it a try?"

"What if it succeeds?"

Lynch has always seen it clearly, "Don't think this is the limit, they will increase their investment and get even crazier!"

"Carnival in December, and then the battlefield will shift to Bupain!"

Catherine didn't know what to say, because what Lynch said was indeed correct. During the construction period in the first two years, she already had a lot of money.

After the construction was completed in Slem, countless money poured in!

Local taxation is mainly used for local economic construction and development, and Slem is the only place in the state that can use money.

Other places...if they allocate 2000 million to [-] million every year, they would be very happy!

Last year, the state government's fiscal balance exceeded 5000 million. This was because Catherine listened to Lynch and distributed an extra [-] million to each of the following cities.

If it hadn't been for so much extra money, the balance might have exceeded one billion, or more!
Catherine is not the kind of governor who comes from a political family in the traditional sense, and Lynch can meet all her material needs, so she is not keen on putting "government money" into "her own pocket".

Not even interested at all!

She didn't have this interest, but these twenty candidates for governor did!
They may have made various plans now, or earlier, so that they can smoothly and quietly put the government's money into their own pockets after they come to power!
It's not hard for them, especially candidates with a family background, their father, grandpa, earlier ancestors have already started doing it.

For federal politicians, graft and corruption are a family tradition!

After many generations and many people's research, it has been perfected!
Just like the transfer of federal benefits, even the law fucking allows it, who can say anything?
All this made Catherine a little strange, "Do I have to deal with these people every day in the future?"

Lynch nodded, "The situation in Congress is much more complicated than here, but you don't have to worry too much, they won't mess around."

“You can learn a lot there, things you wouldn’t expect!”

Catherine became interested, "What is it?"

Lin Qi smiled but didn't answer. There were so many things she could learn, such as lying constantly and having no bottom line.

These are all essential elements for top federal politicians. One second they can stand in front of the camera and say that they will contribute their share to the people.

With a turn of the head, they can throw the people into the juicer and squeeze out the last drop of blood together with the capitalists. There is nothing they dare not do or cannot do.

I hope Catherine will not be too disappointed when the time comes...

What happened in Slem has also become an unavoidable hot topic in the federal political arena in a short period of time. The governors of the three states of Nagalil are all up for election.

Several gubernatorial candidates in the financial center of the southern hemisphere have invested only 4000 million in campaign funds combined.

There are only three candidates for the World Ocean Transportation Center, and the total campaign funds are only 500 million.

Only Slem, so dazzled!
Crazy burning of tens of millions of money every day!
