Chapter 506: General election results

When the weekend passed, the 1992 US presidential election was finally approaching.

The game that lasted for several months will finally come to a result on November 3.

Although in the previous support survey, the support rate of Rose Perot as an independent candidate was as high as 20%, the two-party ruling structure in the United States has not changed because of this. The results of this year's general election will still be among the two major parties produce.

However, compared with the situation where a single candidate can only serve as a foil for many years in the past, the support rate shown by Ross Perrault in the US presidential election also made both parties quite wary.

Monday passed by in a blink of an eye.

In order to facilitate the public to vote, on November 3, U.S. universities and elementary schools basically have a day off, and many companies also give their employees half a day off.

In this election, Simon still does not plan to vote in person.

The main reason is that it is not like being watched by the media and does not want to trigger any public opinion effects.

Therefore, Simon rushed to San Francisco the day before the election.

The Eaglet portal will conduct a 24-hour webcast of the election. As an event-type traffic news that can greatly increase the attention of the website, the entire Eaglet company attaches great importance to it, and has already begun preparations one month in advance.

Early on Tuesday morning, Simon and his female assistant woke up in Woodside's mountain villa less than four o'clock.

According to voting management, polling stations across the United States are open for voting at 6 o'clock in the morning, and the deadline is 6 o'clock in the afternoon for 12 hours.

Arriving at Igreat headquarters in downtown Palo Alto, the brightly lit office building is already busy.

The three giants of Igreat, Tim Berners Lee, Jeff Bezos and Carol Bartz have all appeared at the headquarters, and Bezos, who is mainly responsible for the network business, has stayed up all night. What the three care about is not only the traffic that this election itself brings to the website, but also the significance of this election. Once Clinton wins the election, the federal domestic policies in the next few years will be very biased towards new technology fields. The rise of is crucial.

A group of high-level executives gathered in a large open conference room where you can see the employees' working area. News and data related to the election were displayed on the projector in real time.

It's only four o'clock on the west coast, and seven o'clock in the morning on the east coast. New Hampshire, the first state to vote, has some advance data.

A small town called Dixville in New Hampshire was the first to open voting. There were 78 people in the town who participated in the voting. According to preliminary statistics, George Bush: 23 votes; Bill Clinton: 39 votes; Rose Pay Luo: 16 votes.

Bill Clinton is far ahead.

Although the result of a small town’s vote does not affect the overall situation, it does not prevent the media from giving this opening a different interpretation and meaning.

For those who support Clinton, this is obviously a good sign.

The Eaglet Portal immediately made the headlines of the voting results of Dixville.

This is actually a kind of public opinion guidance.

You must know that people have a blind obedience mentality. Seeing the results of the small town’s voting, many people may change their voting tendencies at a certain moment.

In the U.S. presidential election, this tendency is accumulated bit by bit.

Not only the Eaglet portal, but also CNN TV, which is also inclined to the Democratic camp, also reported the voting results of the small town of Dixville in real time.

Both the veteran CNN and the emerging Eaglet portal are already important media platforms that cannot be ignored in the United States and have a strong influence on the tendency of news and public opinion.

It just so happens that the two media platforms, compared to traditional newspapers, are both powerful and real-time.

As a result, when the two major platforms simultaneously reported on the voting results of the small town of Dixville, it soon had a significant impact.

Across the Atlantic, Brent crude oil futures on the London Mercantile Exchange began to fluctuate downward.

As for how to justify it, there is no doubt that the Bush family represents the interests of the American oil class and pushed up crude oil prices to a large extent.

The fall in the price of Brent crude oil futures is undoubtedly the most direct manifestation of the market's leading Bill Clinton in the election results of a certain eastern town.

Both the Eaglet portal and CNN have keenly grasped the fluctuations in crude oil futures prices and began to report further.

Bill Clinton, who established an official blog on the Eaglet portal very stylishly, also quickly issued a thank you speech for the voting results of Dixville. After being topped by the Eaglet portal, a large number of similar Message support from the public who follow the election through the Internet.

In a short blog post, within half an hour, the number of comments exceeded 120,000, which inevitably became a small news event, even CNN’s real-time news was broadcast.

The Bush camp will certainly refute this.

However, compared with Bill Clinton, who is advancing with the times, and because of the tendency of the Igreat portal during this period, the Bush camp did not open an official blog on the Igreat portal, so it was only possible through a high-level campaign team. 'S personal blog refutes Igreat Portal and CNN for contributing to a small town's voting results.

Although this blog was pushed to the top according to the blog’s popularity rules, it was not artificially topped, and the attention was naturally much worse than Clinton.

When the sky lights up on the west coast, most states in the United States except Alaska and Hawaii have opened voting.

Throughout the day, there will basically be news on current affairs from both sides of the election and comments on various issues from the surrounding expert media.

After everyone had breakfast together at more than seven o’clock, Jeff Bezos and Carol Bartz also expressed their intention to vote and leave temporarily. Tim Berners Lee is still a British citizen and did not join in the fun. After returning to the headquarters to preside over the overall situation, Simon also followed with the female assistant, but did not get together with everyone anymore, but came to an office reserved for Simon at the headquarters.

Grandpa leaned on the leather chair and flipped through today's newspaper. When the female assistant turned on the computer for herself, and sorted out the documents that the staff had just sent, Simon reached out and took the female assistant into his arms.

Jennifer glanced at the door, remembering that she had locked the door just now, and was relieved.

Watching Simon take off her small high heels, curl up her legs and hide a pair of small feet in stockings, diverting the man's attention: "The bill to remove telecom operators from getting involved in equipment manufacturing should have been passed at the end of last month. Now, because of the incident of the Egrets portal, this matter has been suppressed again. Do you think there will be twists and turns?"

The female assistant's figure is very slender, so although she is tall, she has a clear little birdie when she shrinks into Simon's arms.

Putting the light body of the female assistant in his arms, and kissing her white neck, Simon said: "This is the general trend, not just the White House. If nothing happens, the Democratic Party will also control the two people. Even if Bush drags on for a few months and waits for the transfer of power to complete, this matter will still pass."

Jennifer was itchy when he was kissed by the man, she shrank her neck, leaned her face, and said, "But, I don't think it should be that simple."

It is indeed not that simple. Even if George Bush steps down this time, the Bush family’s deep-rooted influence in American politics will not dissipate.

However, the so-called politics is nothing more than a game.

Under the circumstances that oneself clearly has an advantage, if it is still unable to pass a bill that the entire industry is very inclined to lift the ban, it will appear too incompetent.

Especially Bill Clinton.

The successful entry into the White House this time has given him great support, whether it is Hollywood or Silicon Valley.

If he cannot deliver the benefits that these supporters deserve after taking office, and the president wants to be re-elected, even after the end of the presidential term, he wants to maintain his political influence, it will be impossible.

In this regard, according to Simon's past life, Clinton is still a very trustworthy person.

The two were chatting when the door of the room was knocked suddenly.

The female assistant was taken aback, and a little rabbit jumped from Simon's arms, and then remembered that she was not wearing shoes.

He glared at the man angrily, found the shoes to put on, tidied his clothes, and ran to open the door.

The person here is Claire Gein, and behind Girl C is another little tail named Jennifer.

Girl C did not show anything unusual because of the blush on the female assistant's face. She greeted Simon, and everyone sat down on the sofa in the reception area. In order to avoid the small embarrassment just now, the female assistant took the initiative to prepare coffee.

The tiny Jennifer Bray followed the female assistant's gaze and left the office, before regaining her attention and falling on the man in front of her.

Although on the surface a restrained and well-behaved appearance, the depths of the little Jenny's beautiful blue eyes still carry the little enthusiasm when rushing to the Madonna concert stage to a certain man.

It seems to be poisoned.

Every time I think of the opportunity to be by his side every day in the future, Jennifer Bray will have insomnia excitedly.

However, she is also a very smart girl.

Understand that if you behave too fanatical, it may be counterproductive.

Therefore, she now seems to be no longer like his star chaser at all. Of course, everything about him can be seen everywhere in her apartment bedroom, and there are still many things displayed, but she never opens up to others. Own bedroom.

Well, except for him.

At this moment, facing the man in front of her, the girl couldn't help but get distracted.

I can't help thinking about what he and another Jenny did in the office just now. Obviously, it is a very intimate thing. In the future, will I be able to do the same.

Then involuntarily produced some uncontrollable emotions.

A few glances at him made this emotion even more turbulent.

Simon looked reluctantly at the little girl who was blushing in front of him, and chatted with Girl C for a while about Tincobel, and finally couldn't help but wink at her.

Claire noticed the reaction of the girl beside her, which was also a little funny.

Although the girl usually hides it well, as an equally smart woman, Claire can certainly see through the little girl's details.

I just didn't expect that the girl would suddenly reveal herself at this time.

The office door was pushed open again at this time, and the female assistant walked in with the coffee. For some reasons, Girl C didn’t want the female assistant to see the appearance of Jenny at this time, so she reached out and pinched her waist. He came to her ear and said, "Jane, you better go wash your face."

Being pinched by Girl C, it hurts a bit. Jennifer Bray also reacted immediately and stood up shyly and said: "Hug, sorry, I'll go to the bathroom."

After speaking, he got up and ran out from the other side of the sofa.

The female assistant carefully took the coffee in her hand. Seeing the little girl hurried away, she didn't notice the blush on her face, so she was a little curious and didn't ask too much. She put the tray on the coffee table and started to distribute coffee to everyone.

Little Jenny came back again, everything has returned to normal.

However, seeing the female assistant sitting generously beside him, it is unavoidable to envy in my heart.

Everyone has talked about the Tinkobair Company and paid attention to the progress of the general election from time to time, and time flies quickly.

So until four o'clock in the afternoon on the west coast, and seven o'clock in the evening on the east coast.

The election time for some states on the east coast is up to one hour, and the voting results are basically released.

At 7:08 east coast time, Indiana, which is biased towards the US headquarters, was the first to announce the results. George Bush won and won the first 12 electoral votes.

Indiana is close to the Great Lakes and belongs to the old heavy industrial area of ​​the United States. With the decline of the American automobile industry and the continued economic downturn, it is called the Rust Belt, which is also the traditional ticket warehouse of the Republican camp.

The Bush camp won the first battle, but this excitement only lasted 3 minutes.

At 7:11, the news came again, and the New Hampshire vote results were released. This time, Bill Clinton won and won his first four electoral votes.

However, afterwards, a series of eastern states announced the election results, and Bill Clinton, who failed to get a good start, counterattacked all the way.

Maine, Rhode Island, New York, New Jersey, Delaware...

Almost all of the New England regions that were voted earlier fell to Bill Clinton, but in the last election, George Bush had an absolute advantage in New England.

Immediately afterwards, in the eastern and southern states, George Bush once again moved back to a lot of disadvantages, except for Georgia, the Republican traditional southern ticket warehouse, Florida, Alabama, etc., George Bush successfully won.

However, the southeastern states have also become George Bush's only advantage.

The defeat began with the ‘rust belt’ that gave George Bush a good start.

For several weeks in the Great Lakes region, the last election was still red, but this time, Indiana became the only red. Other states such as Illinois, Ohio, Michigan, etc., all changed from red to blue.

When the statistics of the eastern United States ended, Bill Clinton had already occupied an absolute advantage.

In the end, around the early morning of West Coast time, all the states and counties in the United States, including Hawaii, all came out.

Bill Clinton won the 52nd US presidential election with an absolute advantage of 370 to 163 and successfully ascended to the throne of the White House.
