Golden Fishery

To vote, you need to bring your ID card and the ID card sent by the government. The name and address are printed on the card, which is about four times the size of a postcard. It looks like an admission ticket, but it is not the test number, but the voting location.

There are guards at the entrance of the office hall, checking ID cards and ID cards one by one.

Qin Shiou handed the certificate to the guard officer, who scanned it with a scanner, left his identity card and gave him an anonymous election card.

The width of the election card is about the same as that of A4 printing paper, and the length is one and a half times that of A4 paper. There are several election items listed on it. The first is the mayoral election. Qin Shiou was surprised when he saw it. Murray was running, and there were six of them!

Winnie explained to him: "Two weeks before the start of the election, the final duo will be decided. Unless there is a particularly powerful dark horse, the first duo will be the final duo. This year is the Olympic Games. Cave and Hamley."

Qin Shiou understood this way, and Hamley was quite reliable in his work. It was after defeating his opponents in the first round that he was approached to ask for election funds.

In addition to electing the mayor, a city councilor in the district must also be elected. The city councilor in the district last term was Hamley. There are ten candidates in this term, and someone from Farewell Township was elected. It's Shaq and Hughes.

Qin Shiou slapped his thigh and said to Winnie: "Shaq also has a chance to be a city councilor? Damn it, why didn't he say it earlier? Let's help him do some publicity."

Winnie gave him a blank look, and said: "The mayor and the city councilor will not come from the same community. Farewell Town is equivalent to a community. Although Shaq and Hughes have seats, they cannot be elected. What's the use of publicity? Besides, Are you sure Shaq can be a city councilman?"

Qin Shiou thought for a while, just as Shaq came with his daughter-in-law smiling happily.

Looking at Shaq, whose muscles are as strong as a rock and his temper is as violent as rolling thunder, Qin Shiou shook his head decisively. With Shaq's temperament, it is estimated that once he is aggrieved in the city council, he can beat other city councilors on the spot.

Except city councilors. It is also necessary to choose the chief political officer of several committees such as education, finance, and agriculture, although Qin Shiou does not know him. But I also heard about these people, so I chose a few people according to my own understanding.

After making the selection, there is an ATM-style machine in the center of the hall, with a screen and an opening. Qin Shiou walked over and put the ballot into the ticket reading slot, just like sucking a bank card, the ballot was sucked in immediately.

Each ballot has an electronic code. After entering, the relevant information will be scanned and sent to the central computer processor immediately, so that the whole process cannot be cheated.

One good thing about Canada's elections,

That is to say, the results are released on the same day, and the collection of ballots will stop after ten o'clock. The Election Commission began to check the results, and all six candidates were on the scene, waiting for the final results.

half an hour later. The results are simultaneously broadcasted through the Internet, TV stations, newspapers and other channels.

Hamley was elected by overwhelming votes!

St. Johns cast a total of 150,000 votes this time, and he won 120,000. O'Keffer, who was regarded as his biggest opponent, only had more than 20,000 votes, and he lost easily!

Hamley's election group prepared a 100-inch LED display screen in the town, and when the result appeared on the screen, the surrounding townspeople burst into cheers!

Qin Shiou put his arms around Wei Ni and looked at the TV screen. Hamley had the results and straightened his suit. He smiled and shook hands with his opponents one by one, and then immediately made his acceptance speech.

Hamre's speech was very simple. He said vigorously: "According to statistics, the number of voter participation this year is the largest. Some people say that this is a victory in the election because more people have begun to enjoy their own rights. However, I don't agree. !"

"I firmly believe in Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel's famous dictum: the more indifferent the voters are to their right to vote, the more satisfied they are with life and with the ruling body! When the citizens are equally satisfied with their lives, the election will be won!"

"That's the end of my speech, I don't want to emphasize anything, let's wait and see! Look at what me and my team will do! Thank you, everyone, and everyone in St. Johns!"

Qin Shiou was watching Hamley pretending to be aggressive, but someone found him and asked him to host tonight's celebration dinner.

"What? There is a celebration dinner tonight? Why didn't you notify me in advance?" Qin Shiou was surprised.

The person who notified him was an important member of Hamley's election group, but Qin Shiou was not very familiar with it. The person smiled and said: "Because before this moment, we don't know who will become the mayor, so we can't be sure whether it will be or not." There is a celebratory dinner!”

Qin Shiou laughed, this guy is pretending to be aggressive, Hamley has already gone to him to find out the truth, and when he invited McCallion, he was destined to be elected as the mayor of St. Johns this term.

"Why are you looking for me? I'm not suitable, am I?" He still thinks it's best not to be such a young bird.

The man still smiled and said, "Except you, Mr. Qin Shiou, who else is qualified to host such a dinner party? You are the staunchest supporter of Mayor Hamley, you are the spiritual leader of the town, and you are the best person tonight." host!"

The people around were attracted, and after hearing what the man said, they waved their fists and shouted: "Qin! Qin! Qin! Wine! Wine! Wine!"

The rostrum where the LED screen is located has already adjusted the speaker equipment. Qin Shiou walked over to pick up the microphone, and flicked it pretentiously, and the cheers from the audience became quieter.

Then he said: "OK, listen to me guys, first look around, are there any children? If you find children, take them home immediately, the next occasion is not suitable for them to participate in!"

"Let's see if there are any pregnant women? Winnie, dear, you are one of them, who can help me send her home?"

"The rest, girls, protect yourselves, because the rest of tonight, there will be! Yes! One! Fun! Fun!"

"Aww!" The crowd cheered frantically.

The Hamley Group has prepared beer and champagne, and before twelve o'clock midnight, everyone is drinking beer and screaming here.

Because only the results came out tonight, and Hamley is not yet the official mayor, he will take over from O'Keffer in the next month, so Hamley will rush back after being interviewed by reporters on the spot.

When the two mayors hand over, it will be another battle of war. O'Kever will hand over his mess to him, and he will definitely try not to take over the problems left over from the O'Kever era.

As soon as Hamley came back, Qin Shiou, Hughes and his party shook the champagne and pointed the bottle at him, and started spraying!

Now Hamre's demeanor is completely different. He has accompanying reporters who will record this carnival night and show it to the citizens. Hamle must let go and show his friendly side. (to be continued)
