At this moment, another man walked over. The man ignored him, glanced at the voting machine, quickly verified his identity, and just as he was about to vote, his bracelet vibrated.
He glanced at the bracelet and saw it was a promotional ad. He quickly turned off the bracelet and clicked to vote.
The final vote was scheduled for 17:50:00.
"DeSanchez, DeSanchez, DeSanchez".
The man with the wine bottle flipped through a page on the voting machine and finally found the name.
He trembled as he chose the name to verify his identity.
Then he staggered down the street, bottle in hand, muttering, "The house's gone, my home's gone, heh heh."
He looked at Ned's campaign poster by the street, raised his bottle, and threw it, hitting Ned on the head. Crimson liquor splattered everywhere. As the setting sun cast its last rays, he staggered down the street.
“Mr. Ned, your villa is so beautiful.”
······
On the television commercial screen beside them, the host was looking at the script in his hand.
"It is reported that during his tenure as a senator, Ned purchased a total of 315 houses, of which 287 were converted into his private villas or commercial apartments, and the remaining 28 are still under renovation."
"The money to purchase these houses was entirely provided by the Wellcome Charitable Foundation."
Kaven, progress is a bit slow, need to sort things out.

Chapter 595 It is our past, but it should never be ours.
The Wrime Medical Research Building, located behind Wrime Witland Hospital, is an annex to the hospital. This research building is one of Wrime Medical Group's main research bases in Witland. It has 57 floors and is one of the tallest buildings in the Plantation.
"According to an announcement on the official website of Whelmwell Witland Hospital, the research building began equipment upgrades three days ago, with upgrades taking place from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m. every day. During this time, all staff members will be away."
Eve's voice echoed in the quiet car. He looked up at the window and saw the dim night sky hanging down, with towering buildings standing in the darkness, as if reaching into the depths of the stars and clouds.
Bright lights streamed through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, clustering together and obscuring the brilliance of the stars, covering the building's surface.
Previously, this research building was often brightly lit all night long when there were no equipment upgrades.
He lowered his head and looked down at the building.
The building is surrounded by a low wall and is not connected to the adjacent Whelmwell Hospital.
The building's entrance is located on the street-facing side of the perimeter wall, where several menacing-looking security guards stand around the entrance, checking the identification documents of everyone entering and exiting.
Three miniature laser cannons, disguised as cameras, were arranged around the access control area, 'watching' the vehicles and people coming and going on the street.
At this moment, He's car, parked on the side of the street, was just outside the edge of the field of view of these miniature laser cannons.
He Ao withdrew his gaze from the gate and looked down at himself, where the long bone axe was placed on his lap.
This bone axe was originally just a fragment left after the core of Allent's bone pillar shattered. Heo saw that it looked like an axe and had good strength, so he used it as a weapon.
However, it is not actually a qualified weapon. Its axe blade is not sharp enough in many places, and the entire axe is full of sharp edges, making it difficult to control the direction when throwing it.
He raised his right hand, revealing the mechanical bracelet on his right hand. He reached out with his left hand and slowly pulled out a metal wire hidden in the bracelet to a suitable length, then used the mechanical bracelet to lock the metal wire in place.
Then he straightened the metal wire in his hand, covered the thin metal wire with his divine sense, and slowly traced it along the uneven part of the bone axe placed in front of him.
The bone axe, which was originally full of sharp edges and only somewhat resembled an axe in shape, was easily cut off by this fine wire, just like cutting tofu, leaving only a streamlined cross-section.
At the same time, He Ao slowly asked, "Eve, is the Psychological Research Institute of Wirme Vettland Hospital still in this building?"
"It's still there. The institute is located on the top floor of the research building, floors 55-57, and is currently operating normally. Due to equipment upgrades, the latest operating time for the psychology institute has been moved from 10 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.."
Within this research building, the Institute of Psychology is a special section; it serves as both a research institution and a facility for the Wittland Institute.
An operations department within the hospital.
Inside the hospital, although there is a psychotherapy department, it is very small and cannot accommodate many people. Most of the psychotherapy at Whelmholtz Hospital is done in the psychotherapy department located in this research building.
Therefore, this psychotherapy center is open to the public in a sense. You can book an appointment with a psychologist directly on the website of Whelmholtz Hospital and then enter the psychotherapy center in the research building for psychotherapy.
"Eve, please help me book the last treatment session at the Psychological Research Institute tonight, with a general practitioner."
He Ao slowly raised the metal wire in his hand, looked at the bone axe that he had roughly shaped, and said in a low voice.
"it is good."
Eve responded, and after a very short pause, she continued, "I have scheduled a psychotherapy session for you tonight from 8:30 to 9:30. The session will be held in room 5507 on the 55th floor of the Huiermei Medical Research Building."
"Ah."
He Ao nodded slightly. He used the thin thread in his hand to cut along the uneven blade of the bone axe, gradually creating a sharp edge.
On a giant screen outside the commercial building next to him, a countdown to the end of the election was being displayed.
-
"Welcome to the midterm election live broadcast studio on Trison TV. I'm Moran, and Professor Dart from Waitland University and I will be providing you with in-depth coverage of this midterm election."
As the camera zoomed in, the impeccably dressed host turned his gaze to Professor Dart, who was slightly older than him. "There are less than four hours left until the end of the election. This Senate election in Waitland has been quite eventful. I think it's even more exciting than the previous mayoral election in Waitland. I heard you've already received the latest support rate survey data?"
"really,"
Professor Dart, sitting opposite him, took out a document.
"This Senate election has been incredibly dramatic. First, the incumbent senator, Nieder, who originally had high public support, was exposed to various scandals, including criminal cases."
"Then Walker, who was originally ranked third, suddenly rose to prominence and gained a lot of exposure. According to the latest data we have obtained, Walker's support rate has now exceeded 10%, reaching 13.4%, which has surpassed the previous highest support rate of the popular candidate DeSantis."
"Of course, that's not the most surprising part,"
Dart projected a data sheet onto the television screen next to him: "DeSanc, who was previously a popular candidate, now has a support rate close to 20% after getting the endorsement of Mayor Christos of Dawn City, while Ned, who was originally in the lead, has seen his support rate drop to around 21% due to the scandal."
"Professor Dart, based on the data you described, do you think DeSanchez has a high probability of winning this time?"
Morren asked with a smile.
"Actually, no,"
Dart smiled and shook his head, then began displaying various data on the television next to him.
"As far as I know, DeSantis is still giving speeches, trying to increase his vote count, but we all know that on Election Day..."
Campaigning is actually quite ineffective; voters who have already decided who to vote for are unlikely to change their minds easily.
"Moreover, DeSanchez's approval rating comes from Christos, not from himself."
"According to our survey, many voters from Plant and West End only learned about DeSanchez after Christos endorsed him, and were willing to switch their support to DeSanchez because of Christos."
"But we know that our relationship with Dawn City has not been very good over the years."
"Although Christos is renowned throughout the Federation, he is the mayor of Dawn City, and his fundamental duty is to protect the interests of Dawn City. Therefore, many voters do not like him at heart."
"In fact, we can see from the support data we are currently investigating that very few people have actually changed their minds and switched their votes to DeSantis from Ned or other candidates. His overall support rate has only increased by 7%."
"Most of these new voters come from the economically disadvantaged West End, Plante District, and Ernst District, where voter turnout has historically been very low, resulting in a small number of votes. Meanwhile, in North Witland and St. Roth District, where voter turnout is highest, Ned's support remains very high."
"So you still think Ned will be re-elected as a senator?"
The host asked softly.
"That's most likely the case,"
Dart placed his hand on the table and smiled. "Of course, it's not impossible for DeSanker to win the election. If the FBI approves the arrest warrant for Ned within these four hours, it could potentially affect Ned's approval rating."
"But the FBI headquarters is closed now,"
Host Morren chuckled in agreement, "Besides, regarding Ned's case, only the Wetland branch has announced an investigation; headquarters hasn't intervened yet."
“So, while I’m also looking forward to a reversal,” Dart said with a smile and a shrug, “it’s still impossible for DeSanke to beat Ned.”
······
Hashi turned her gaze away from the live stream on the screen and looked at DeSanke, who was standing in the very center of the open-air venue.
"Many of those who have come here today are factory employees in the industrial zone. I believe many of you know that I also worked in the industrial zone."
"Back then, my weekly salary was only 270 federal dollars. I lived in the cheapest apartment building near the industrial area. After paying rent and various fees, as well as the telecommunications company's service fee and deducting the bus fare to and from get off work, the remaining money was only enough for me to buy some food."
"Of course, although working in the factory is tiring, I can still make a living like this, and I can even save some money."
"Until I caught a bad cold, the factory where I worked at the time had temporary contracts with us and didn't provide any medical insurance."
"Treating this cold cost me all the money I had painstakingly saved, and it also left me with credit card debt. Since then, I have never been able to pay off my credit card debt. Taking sick leave during my severe cold caused me to lose my job, and I have to rely on credit cards to make a living."
"Of course, I was lucky. Soon after, I found a new factory, and in that factory, I..."
I witnessed a colleague fall into the churning machine, and blood splattered on my face.
DeSanchez looked around at the people who were quietly listening to his speech.
“We worked together for a while, he was a good person, he taught me a lot, what impact did his death have?”
"Nothing was caused! The machine is still running, crushing his body to pieces. A family's breadwinner is gone, and his family has received no compensation."
"The factory even considered suing his family for compensation for the losses caused by his falling into the machine, which led to the machine being shut down for maintenance."
"This is my life, and it is the life of each and every one of us."
"It is our past, it is our present, but it should never be our future!"
DeSanchez raised his palm, making sure everyone in the crowd could see him. "I'm standing here today, I've come this far to change all of this!"
"DeSanchez!"
A figure in the crowd also raised his hand and shouted.
