Chapter 1441 - I’M GOING TO DRINK UNTIL I THROW UP! (1/2)

The results were tallied up after the polls closed.

Several mainstream media and some online media broadcasted the results in each state in real-time

In an apartment building in Capital, several men sat around the sofa as they stared at the votes on the TV. The beating numbers seemed to possess magical powers that froze time and words as they captured all their attention.

At this moment, a man in a suit pushed open the door and walked in.

Joseph Kennedy looked to the door, then asked immediately.

“How is the situation?”

“I just asked, the results of H State have came out, we won!”

When Joseph Kennedy heard those words, he didn’t display any pride or excitement. Instead, he just looked at the map on the wall and said calmly.

“H State has only four electoral votes, and traditionally, it’s a Democratic State. Winning in H State does not mean anything. The key is those swing states. Only by winning those swing states can we win this election…”

At this moment, Joseph Kennedy stared at the TV and suddenly looked ecstatic. Though that joy was quickly hidden behind his calmness, the corner of his lips turned up made it difficult to hide the emotions he felt at this moment.

In less than half a minute, the results from IN State came in. Joseph Kennedy won the state by a mere 500 votes. Based on the Electoral College winner-takes-all system, all 11 electoral votes in the state went into his pocket.

But it was not what excited him the most.

Traditionally, IN State had always leaned toward the Republican Party, but now it had surrendered to the embrace of the Democratic Party. Although they only won by a slight margin, it was quite significant to turn a state blue among the red states on the map.

“Nice job. The people of IN State have embraced the deep blue. I guess the Republican will be very ‘grateful’ for the Mr. Loudmouth they elected.” Joel Neeson blew a whistle as he joked.

“At least we will thank him.” Jim Magris smiled.

Laughter echoed throughout the living room, and the room was full of joy.

Although the outcome was not yet clear, everyone’s clenched fists and frowning brows seemed to relax. God bless, fortunately, the people remained sane. Fortunately, the Democratic Party’s credit had not been consumed.

At this moment, the laughter in the room suddenly stopped.

Joseph Kennedy’s mood suddenly fell from cloud nine as his face gradually turned gloomy.

Just now, the host on TV broadcasted the results of MI State.

With a 5% advantage, eleven electoral votes fell into that rogue pocket.

The original advantage was reversed in an instant, and the previously uplifting atmosphere in the room turned into silence.

“It’s okay, the outcome is still unclear,” Joel Neeson put his hand on Kennedy’s shoulder and comforted, “The key to the victory or defeat is F State and O State. As long as we win those two swing states, victory is still ours.”

Joseph Kennedy took a deep breath and said slowly.

“I know.”

F State and O State had 27 and 20 electoral votes, respectively. MI State’s eleven electoral votes were less than half of those in these two states. It was just that the failure of Missouri made him tense again.
