"Dear spectators, this is Braddock's football field. It's 8:50 am now. In ten minutes, Braddock's election results will be announced here. Can the 18-year-old Rex succeed in the election and become the youngest incumbent mayor in the United States? We will know soon."

Rachel stood in front of the camera, holding the microphone, and speaking quickly.

Yesterday, the live coverage of Cable News Station conducted a few periods of time, and the ratings feedback was very good. It is expected that the live broadcast ratings will continue to rise when the election results were announced today. This is an excellent opportunity for Rachel, who has just debuted.

There will be many people and many media attention in this election. The Pittsburgh Post, Pittsburgh Tribune, City Guide, New Express, Catholic, Jewish Chronicle, and the ** newspaper "Pitt News" at the University of Pittsburgh, Carnegie Mellon University's "Grid" and Boent Parker University's "Global" all sent reporters to the scene.

Several major TV stations in the Pittsburgh area, CBS's KDK-TV, ABC's Wate-TV, Fox's WPGH-TV and several other local TV stations have also sent journalists and videographers, and NBC's Pittsburgh cable TV station will broadcast live. In the past, this is a grand event that only happened in the Pittsburgh city elections. Braddock has not encountered such a grand event for decades in history.

In addition to the media, some public organizations, such as the Allegheny County branch of the American Youth Services organization YSA, the Thomas Morton Center, etc., have also sent observation personnel to pay attention to the results of the election on the spot.

In order to deal with this situation, the Braddock Election Commission specially chose the spacious football field as the venue for the release of the news. It was close to nine o'clock when the results were released. Hundreds of residents had arrived here early, and dozens of media and public organizations staffed the scene seemed very lively, and the town had not been so lively for a long time.

"According to the sample survey we conducted at the voting site yesterday, more than 80% of voters believe that Hawke will be re-elected, and only about 10% of voters believe that the 18-year-old Rex has a chance, while some voters say that the results are difficult to predict..." Rachel kept walking among the crowd at the scene, while reviewing the situation of yesterday's vote, the conclusion seemed to be very unfavorable to Wang Lei.

"In our interview, some voters made their choice public, and more than 80% of voters voted for Hawke, and only 10% voted for Rex. These situations seem to indicate that Hawke has a great hope of re-election, and it is difficult for eighteen-year-old Rex to be elected."

"Rex, the result will be announced soon. How are you feeling now?" Rachel once again found Wang Lei and interviewed him.

Wang Lei was very nervous, his heartbeat was rapid, and his palms were sweating. He knew that Rachel was conducting a live broadcast report, trying to relax his facial muscles and smile.

But he couldn't do it and laughed reluctantly.

"I can't be sure, yes, I can't be sure. You know, I read the evening news from the news station. The situation is not optimistic, but I will not give up. I love Braddock, and my partners and I will continue to promote the community revitalization of the town and the economic revitalization... We don't want Hawke's new neighborhood plan to be implemented and don't want to lose the stadium in front of us. So, even if I fail, we will continue to oppose it!" The nervousness made Wang Lei look very reserved, but he couldn't take care of it. At this moment when deciding his destiny, he could not show his emotions.

He is not a sophisticated politician, but a fledgling novice.

"Rex, don't be too pessimistic. You will be elected. I, my dad and mom have voted for you, but they said in front of the camera that Hawk will be elected, and I think others are the same." Emily pulled Wang Lei's hand and whispered beside him.

Wang Lei was with his friends, Emily, Colin, Luca, Wang Yang, Alvin, Douglas, and other young friends, teammates on the team, Walker, Brady and others, all gathered on the court, waiting for the final result to be announced.

Wang Lei's parents, Wang Jiaming, Hu Shuying, sister Wang Hua and others are also here. In addition, Hawke, his wife, his supporters, and his women's election brigade were also on the scene.

"Yes, my mom voted for you, she thought you were amazing and was a star of Braddock," Luca said with a smile.

Wang Lei's heart moved. Luca's mother Camilla has always been unfavorable for his election and has sarcasticted many times, but she did not expect to vote for him in the end.

Braddock's star? Is the town star aura working? Wang Lei suddenly had a little more anticipation. In the past two days, as the media began to pay attention to voting and voting results, his reputation of "town star" continued to soar. In addition to the one used to exchange for the halo, another one was lit up, and the other one was also continuing to lit up.

Wang Lei was not in a hurry to use the lit badges. They could continue to exchange for the Town Star Halo, but the second-level halo requires a politician badge and two Town Star badges. They can't be replaced for the time being, and they can't be used because everyone voted, and the result is destined and cannot be changed.

Pittsburgh Cable News switched to the studio, with two hosts David Johnson and Page Finnegan being the longest paired pair in Pittsburgh history, whose show is very popular.

Page talked to the camera: "Dear viewers, Braddock's election results are about to be announced. This is not the US presidential election, or the Pennsylvania election, it is just an election in a town in the suburbs of Pittsburgh, but I know that many people are paying attention. David, do you think this matter deserves our attention like this?"

"Of course, I think there are at least a few points worthy of our attention on this matter: First of all, the 18-year-old candidate Rex Wang, who just celebrated his 18th birthday a month ago. If elected, he would be the youngest mayor in the United States..."

"David, there was an eleven-year-old mayor in the United States..."

"But that was illegal and not recognized. Of course, there is indeed such an exception. Everyone thinks he does a good job, so he elected the child as mayor. He seems to have done a good job, so he was re-elected two years later. If you are interested, you can go and watch the movie "Lone Star Boy", although he is very bad."

"But he tells us a truth that the American government belongs to the American nationals, and we have the right to decide everything about him, even if the law places restrictions. So, no matter what the result of Braddock's election is, no matter whether the 18-year-old boy can manage the town well and fulfill his campaign promises. If he is elected, it will be a victory for the people!" David Johnson waved his fist at the camera. He was always full of passion on the show, although he is over forty this year.

"David, you're right, but let's go back to the topic just now, why are we so concerned about the elections in a small town?" Page said.

David nodded: "Yes, in addition to the amazing age of eighteen, we should also see that the town of Braddock has three thousand residents, which other teenage mayors have never faced. Their towns have only two or three hundred residents at most, and some have dozens of residents. In addition, Braddock is very representative among the towns on the outskirts of Pittsburgh. They once rose because of the prosperity of the steel industry and became declining because of the decline of the steel industry. Now is the time for their life and death. After such a unique election, can Braddock get out of the mud? Can he become a model for many similar towns to gain new life?"

"In addition, we also noticed that Rex is a Chinese. Yes, a Chinese. I have no intention of discriminating against Chinese, but they appear in the election so few times." David raised his fingers and pinched his fingertips, indicating that the number of times was really rare.

Page said from the side: "The Chinese people give me the feeling that they are very hardworking and work non-stop every day; they are also very smart and can always keep the store in order. Even if it is a business of a cent, they will use their best efforts to strive for it; they are always very modest, and even too modest. Even if they are 99% able to do things, they will still say 'it should be possible'..."

David immediately took over the topic: "It may be this modest and restrained personality that makes them rarely participate in public activities or even indifferent. So Rex's appearance surprised and surprised me. Not only did he participate in the election himself, but he also put forward an academic slogan like "Community Revival". I think he first let the Chinese community implement this plan, and in that case, his chances of being elected will become higher."

"Yes, Braddock's Chinese are only 10%, and according to the sample survey conducted by our reporters ahead, only 10% of voters believe that Rex can be elected. This is a huge and irreparable gap." Page opened his arms to show the desperate gap.

David Johnson shook his head: "Of course, if you think the election result is settled and you are eager to change the channel, then you are likely to miss a wonderful, dramatic change and an opportunity to witness a miracle. Because according to our survey, there are many voters who have no public votes, and they vote for Rex, including those residents who think Hawke may be elected..."

"Ahhh, this is really a strange thing," Peggy said.

David laughed: "Haha, it's not surprising. They may think that it's a bit too unserious to vote for an eighteen-year-old, so they don't want to make a fool of themselves in front of the camera."

"Wow, there is still such a possibility?" Page made an exaggerated expression, suddenly became serious again, and said to the camera: "So what the result is? Okay, the reporter in front of us has sent back the news, and the result will be announced soon. Let's go and take a look now..."
