During Eva's most difficult days, Karim had been manipulating Griffith's election in the United States.
Originally, Karim wanted to go to New York to comfort Eva, but Seryosha insisted that Karim not do it.
Eva is now on the cusp of the storm, and once the relationship between Karim and Eva is discovered by someone with a heart, it is likely to cause unnecessary trouble.
Griffith's candidacy for governor of South Dakota was not a whim for Seryosha.
Seryosha hopes to put Griffith on the throne as governor of South Dakota so that Monsanto's genetically modified soybeans can be widely promoted.
However, Griffith's own conditions are not outstanding, although he has good local connections in both North and South Dakota, Griffith has never had political experience, and it will take a lot of effort for Seryosha to make such a candidate a voter's favorite.
When it comes to the election campaign in the United States, it is impossible not to mention public relations firms and lobbying firms.
In order to establish Griffith as a qualified candidate.
Seryosha spent a lot of money to hire a well-known public relations agency to design a new public image for Griffith, under the manipulation of the public relations company, Griffith was portrayed as an old cowboy in South Dakota, who has been crawling on the land all his life, relying on his own diligence step by step to become a successful person, which is a typical script of the American dream, but the simple folks in South Dakota are still willing to eat this set, and after a period of publicity, Griffith gradually became a well-known person in South Dakota.
The task on the lobbying firm's side is even more important, because Griffith is a political amateur and must rely on a political force to win the full support of the South Dakota Democratic Party department.
Karim contacted McGill, the current congressman from South Dakota, through a lobbying firm, and McGill's term was coming to an end after the midterm elections, and McGill would be a normal person again, and after Karim made a large donation to Mrs.
McGill's charitable foundation, at the McGill family's charity appreciation ball, Karim hinted to Congressman McGill that he could serve as a director on Monsanto's board of directors after retirement.
Lured by interests, McGill finally agreed to fully support Griffith in the South Dakota campaign.
With the support of his political faction, his beloved image and his near-invincible fundraising prowess, Griffith's path to election was much smoother than that of most politicians.
Because of his money, Griffith's campaign ads can reach South Dakota's favorite TV channels, he can appear on well-known political talk shows, and he can even star in a designer soap opera.
As long as Griffith holds an election campaign, a large number of celebrities will inevitably be invited to participate, not only the political media will report on his election campaign, but even the entertainment media will be frequent guests in Griffith's election campaign.
Candidates who oppose Griffith argue that Griffith is a political idiot who would be a disaster for South Dakota if he is elected.
Griffiths, on the other hand, retorted that when he was president of Dakota Pasta Growers, farmers in both North and South Dakota had made a fortune.
Griffith, with Kareem's full support, quickly became a blockbuster among nine South Dakota candidates, and according to current polls, South Dakota residents are full of complaints about professional politicians because of the agricultural slump of the past few years, but Griffith, a political amateur, has made a good impression in everyone's mind, with about 30 percent of residents willing to vote for Griffith in the election.
After more than half a year of hard work, Griffiths finally ushered in the first major test of his political career, he and the other nine candidates will participate in the Democratic primary in South Dakota, and it has been determined who will be the first candidate to represent the Democratic Party in the gubernatorial race in next year's midterm elections.
At the moment, in the largest indoor sports arena in Peel, the capital of South Dakota, nine candidates, including Griffith, are making a last-ditch effort to explain their governing ideas to their supporters.
The election is brutal, and politicians who are willing to run are under tremendous financial pressure, and for most candidates, they only have one chance to participate in the Democratic primary, and if they lose, they will never be able to run again, because their financial supporters will lose confidence in him.
After the nine candidates have finished their final speeches, the South Dakota Democratic delegates who came to the event will begin their voting activities to begin the final race for the Democratic gubernatorial candidates.
At nine o'clock, all the delegates to the South Dakota Democratic convention cast their ballots.
In a corner of the gymnasium, in an area separated by a Democratic Party flag, a group of South Dakota Central Party staff wearing uniform-wearing badges are nervously and meticulously counting votes.
The nine candidates stood in line and waited for the final verdict of fate.
Everyone, including Griffith, was watching the count.
They look like fathers-to-be waiting outside the delivery room to hear from them.
Griffith felt the corners of his mouth twitch nervously, and he hurriedly massaged the muscles on his face with his hands, this moment was cruel to all candidates.
None of the candidates who could make it this far were under tremendous pressure, and Griffith felt his heart almost stop.
As the counting of votes drew to a close, there was some restlessness at the scene, which had been somewhat silent.
In some ways, elections in the United States are very similar to the draft.
It's just that the final destination of the draft winner is Hollywood, and the final destination of the election winner is Washington.
When the person in charge of the counting of votes began to confirm the final vote count to his subordinates, several candidates with poor psychological tolerance did not even dare to look at him.
The person in charge took the list, strode onto the podium, and under the watchful eyes of Goldman Sachs, I announced that the final winner was Mr.
Griffith, who had won a total of 14,578 delegate votes with 467 votes.
"Oh" Griffith's supporters in the stands cheered in triumph, and Griffith's family rushed to the stage to celebrate the rare victory.
After a brief period of adjustment, the rest of the candidates began to congratulate Griffith, who would not be governor, but who might be able to seek a position in the Dakota government after Griffith's election.
Karim, who was sitting in the stands, left her seat with a smile, her efforts finally paid off, and Seryosha's plan finally took the first step in a smooth way.
Karim took out his satellite phone from his bag, and he wanted to share the good news with his lover. t1706231537:
