Chicago 1990

Chapter 1416: Constitutional crisis

Peter is not like Song Ya, Underwood, Jr. Daley or Bill Bradley. Gore is still the top rich man after Song Ya, Underwood can still be the party whip, Jr. Daley can still be his Chicago The king, Bradley is a bit miserable, but Bradley's term of office of the Senate will reach two years, and there is enough time to deal with it.

Peter loses the bet and really has nothing, so his mentality is very complicated now.

On the one hand, Gore has not lost after all. Even if there is a chance, Peter will definitely have high hopes for Gore's comeback from the emotional point of view. He himself has also spoken to the media and the party, calling for unity and one heart to help Gore win the battle in Florida. .

On the other hand, Peter's reason undoubtedly told him that Gore could not turn this game, and he was a person who couldn't control himself in terms of personal enjoyment, otherwise, with his ability, he wouldn't be able to end up like this.

He almost lived on the golf course for his three meals, and the old problem that had converged after the prostitution scandal broke out is back again...

At the same time, he didn't wait for the final result, and asked A to help hype that he and Alicia broke up after the end of this year's election road, separated and prepared for divorce.

After all, if Gore loses, the sooner it is known to the outside world that the couple's severance is better for Alicia. Otherwise, when the news of Gore's official defeat, the two suddenly divorce, the public will think Alicia is a snobby woman. , Which hinders her running for the Cook County State Attorney next year.

"Boss, you will rarely see him."

The agent Hayden appeared behind Song Ya and said.

Peter, who had finished playing in the distance, was facing a golf cart and dressed decently with the two above, but the blonde and white girl who was actually a senior call girl joked, and then deliberately pulled a distance away, back and forth. Foot towards the rest building of the golf club.

"Well, let him be happy this time anyway."

Song Ya nodded. Little Daly can't wait to send someone to test his tone. He didn't insist anymore. Once Gore loses the election, Peter is almost certain to go to jail, so...the time for him to indulge is really running out.

On November 12, the Federal District Court of Florida, controlled by the Donkey Party, rejected an urgent application from the Jr. camp to stop manual vote counting on the grounds that manual vote counting falls within the jurisdiction of state law and the federal court cannot arbitrarily interfere.

That’s good. It doesn’t matter if the lawsuit is lost. Since you don’t interfere, the Secretary of State of Florida will backhand the party’s executive power to announce that November 14 is the deadline for the report of the manual vote count. The result of the counting will not be recognized.

How does this work! ? Manual vote counting is inherently very slow. Even if the election system in many counties in Florida is not under the control of the Elephant Party, two days are not enough. The Donkey Party is in a hurry. The United Media criticizes the Secretary of State for abusing his power. Let the counties under their control apply to the Florida state court system for grace periods for manual vote counting.

Soon the Florida court ruled that the Secretary of State’s executive order complied with state law, but... But because'Florida’s manual vote counting results have been deeply tied to the national election, the secretary of state cannot ignore the demands of the county election commission. . ’

It's also very good! What is your appeal? The Secretary of State of Florida immediately asked the county election committee to submit a statement of the reasons why the manual vote count must be postponed, and then he was too lazy to look at it. He simply and rudely used the administrative power to reject it again on the grounds that the reason was “insufficient reason” and announced that it would be on the 18th. Announced the results of the Florida election.

The Gore camp had to appeal to the state supreme court, and then the state supreme law leaning towards the donkey party immediately did as it wished, in the name of a court hearing, forbidding the secretary of state to sign any election results before the state supreme law issued a verdict.

So your state supreme law does not recognize the executive power granted by the state law to the secretary of state? The elephant party media immediately scolded and appealed to the Federal Supreme Court.

So far, the whole thing has finally turned into a farce. Peter is right. The fight in Florida has officially entered a stage where it seems that there is a law to follow, but in fact it completely depends on where the player’s **** is. Even the law has actually been deliberately ignored because there is too much ambiguity. Zones or zones that can be obscured, such as the Secretary of State's direct use of administrative power to play tricks, such as the State Supreme Court deliberately using trial procedures to delay Gore's time for manual vote counting.

Workers of the two parties were even more furious at the scene of manual vote counting intermittently caused by administrative orders and court rulings. Every vote, especially those voters who filled in too many or not filled in error, had a fierce struggle. The basic quality of the party workers in the counties was average, and some even pushed and shoved them on the spot.

Then this ugly scene was broadcast live worldwide, and people from all over the world were eating melons and watching the show.

The media also began to refer to the embarrassing situation and systemic problems of the dignified American America as a "so-and-so crisis."

"In any case, it is still favorable to the party because they still win the book. They only need to delay the time of manual counting as much as possible, and the donkey party can't delay the whole thing indefinitely, right? The image and appeal of the United States and the entire free world are a disaster..." Sloan said.

"I will take care of them to die."

Song Ya can no longer be bored. He has more immediate pain. Investors have completely lost confidence in the rice stocks due to the general election of bad play. The rice stocks plummeted across the board. Now it is not a bet on Gore winning the general election to rescue the market. The problem is that capital is being withdrawn from the United States.

It’s too early for the stocks like YAHOO to come out!

Juniper oscillated down under the "careful care" of O'Grady and other speculators, but the lowest point has dropped below a hundred dollars!

I believe that except for those short-selling vultures, the entire Wall Street will have an eye on it.

In addition, the donkey and elephant parties have increased the pressure on station A. As the current anchor of A’s McAvoy is generally supportive of manual vote counting, let alone Gordon and others, it is like the party’s side. More pressure.

"APLUS, our mutual friends are almost impatient. We are more likely to win. You have to consider this?"

John Liu, a friend of the Elephant Party, called several times and said: "If this continues, we will become enemies. I believe you will never want to see this. I am a legal expert. The final battlefield of this duel must be the highest in the Federation. The court, and you know we can’t lose there."

Little Daly of the Donkey Party also came personally. He actually expected Song Ya to put some pressure on the only black federal judge, the staunch conservative Thomas, and even hinted that he could contact Thomas to find a way to'get him.' Because Thomas asked his assistant to whistle and complain while Song Ya was shot and unconscious. Everyone knows that ‘don’t do anything to us. If the black man can’t stand up by himself, let him lie on his stomach! The ideal Thomas hates many African Americans very much, but he has a very good impression of this self-made young black richest man.

"I won't do it. Call the Federal Justice right now? I'm not that stupid!"

Song Ya refused without thinking, "It seems that both parties foresee that this matter will eventually be submitted to the Federal Supreme Court. What should we do?" He asked Sloan.

"The Federal Supreme Court will most likely make a ruling in favor of the target party, although we still don't know the specific case hit there."

Sloan said: "Unless Gore gets the votes to complete the overtake before that."

But now no one outside knows the result of manual vote counting. Some media said that George Jr. had widened the gap, and some said that Gore had completed the overtake. News was flying randomly. Various TV stations were hiring various on-site guests and companies all day long. All kinds of powerful people support their own position, all kinds of quarrels and curses, like the party’s mouthpiece, FOXNews, is full of firepower, and blows B without letting down the wind.

The current situation of paper media is similar.

The world’s major channels update the news in real time, and by the way, they are popularizing the election law of the country, but many times they are confused when they talk about it.

"Let's play a little trick." Under pressure, Song Ya thought clearly. The conservative hands of the Elephant Party were very dark. There were so many illegal operations in Florida this time, and it was even harder to lose. As for the Donkey Party, how could it be able to account for so much money this year, so he smiled slyly at Sloan, "This...this way."

"Well, it seems feasible."

Sloan nodded as he listened, and finally took out fifty dollars.

The next day, the audience of A found that Gordon and the guest lineup on the news anchor station were gone, and they returned to the usual McAvoy to pick the main beam with the financial anchor and at most one guest.

The reporter called to ask. Station A explained that the general election special program can't always exist, and the program mode will return to normal after all.

On November 22, the Florida Supreme Court ruled to continue the manual counting of votes, which was reported to the Secretary of State five days later. The Secretary of State must accept the result of the manual counting of votes.

Just one day after the donkey party was happy, the Dade County Election Committee, which is controlled by the Elephant Party, claimed that since five days would definitely not be able to complete all the manual vote counting, we simply chose to pick it up.

The donkey party and the media got angry. It turned out that Dade County only completed the manual recount of 6,000 of the county’s 600,000 votes during this period, which is equivalent to doing nothing before!

The Elephant Party really made up its mind to shame, and took Dade County to court over there. It arrived on October 26th. Only one of the disputed counties completed the counting of votes. The Secretary of State immediately signed Florida accordingly. The result of the election announced that George Jr. won by more than 500 votes.

Gorefang filed a complaint again on the 27th. At this time, dozens of large and small lawsuits were being launched in various parts of Florida at the same time...

On the 30th, the Elephant Party members of the Florida Legislature, who were also neutral before, proposed a motion, citing the “Safety Period Act” of 1887 to convene a special meeting of the state legislature, demanding that the parliamentary elections be used before December 12 Twenty-five electors were elected.

The media began to refer to this general election as a constitutional crisis instead of a XX crisis, because it has not been many days since December 18th when the electors of each state voted for the general election. Although there have been incidents of electoral vote running in the past, it has never been It hasn’t affected the final outcome of the general election, but this time the 25 votes in Florida were difficult to produce due to the crazy game between the two parties. If it still can’t be done by then, a procedure that was originally only a ceremonial will become very funny, Buddha The six million voters in the state did not elect twenty-five electors. Instead, the state legislature held a meeting.

The donkey party angrily denounced this as ‘anti-Sa...’ and unconstitutional.

"It's time to accept the reality. Although the whole process made me feel very disgusting, but for the sake of the country, Deputy Commander Gore should stop fighting. This does not mean that this kind of resistance is unjust... But Amerika needs tolerance and mutual understanding. We It is very, very necessary to be together now."

On December 1, the leading anchor of TV A, McAvoy, suddenly "reversed the water," and he instead called on Gore to admit the reality.

"Hehe, personnel is politics, then it becomes a success..."

Song Ya happily said to Song Zecheng beside him: "I have not influenced him at all, but I know that this kind of journalist who claims to have a social conscience will make the right choice he thinks. Although he is clean and upright in this election, it is even more important. I don’t want to see a constitutional crisis in the United States."

"Or you are the boss, Gao, you are really tall." Song Zecheng smiled and gave a thumbs up.

On December 4th, the Federal Supreme Court intervened in the general election for the first time and ‘cancelled’ and ‘returned’ but did not overthrow the favoritism of the Florida Supreme Court towards Gore’s camp, nor did it rule on the legality of manual vote counting.

In fact, the signal has been enough, and the number of people in the original donkey party who followed McAvoy’s anti-water has suddenly increased.

On the 7th, the Supreme Court of Florida held a debate, and the next day Tou Tie continued to ask the counties to recount their votes manually. UU reading www.uukanshu.com

On the 9th, ten days after the Florida Secretary of State signed the election results, the counties below were still counting their votes manually, and George Jr.'s lead was quickly chased to within two hundred votes.

On the 11th, the Federal Supreme Court could not sit still and suddenly demanded that all counties in Florida immediately stop manual vote counting, and officially named the case as George Jr. v. Gore.

At this time, it is not difficult for a discerning person to guess the final result.

"Mr. Gore will probably admit defeat after the Federal Supreme Court verdict." Sloan said.

"It's a pity, but it can only be so."

Song Ya smiled and said, "I did learn a lot this month."

"APLUS, there is a big buyer who wants to eat your YAHOO! All!" At this moment O'Grady happily rushed into the Highland Park, "You can never guess who it is!"

"Oh? Who?"

"Karl Icahn!"
