Chapter 318: This one is stable

McNugget Mahon is a native of Orange County, Los Angeles.

20 years ago.

He's just a restaurant inside washing dishes. But with an excellent eye and an amazing keen intuition for business.

In just 20 years.

From a service worker who came from Europe and could only start as a low-end dish washer, to a billionaire in the United States now.

He runs a real estate company.

It mainly deals in a variety of high-end apartments and small homes in Santa Ana, the capital of Orange County.

For nearly a decade, the city of Santa Ana has attracted middle-class families, especially the large number of newcomers from Asia.

McNuggets Mahon has benefited him from his 20-year journey from a newcomer who could only wash dishes in a restaurant to a real estate agent...... Become one of the most successful real estate merchants in the entire city of Santa Ana now!

Over the years, his company has built apartments that are very popular with middle-class families.

But since the new president came to power, the attitude towards new immigrants has become worse and worse, and seeing that the unreliable thing that makes McNug Mahon hate is likely to make the new immigrants fewer and fewer.

With fewer and fewer middle-class families willing to buy his house, McNugget Mahon had to think about the company's future.

In fact, it is also for his own future business.

He wanted to leave some way back for his future business, and in case the real estate business in Santa Ana didn't do well, he had to find other ways to make money.

And one of the new ways to make money is that he is considering.

It's this year's Orange County Councillor race!

As one of the candidates running for office, McNugget Mahon felt that he was definitely the one who was the most qualified to be a county councilor!

First of all, he feels like a local. Although he was a newcomer from Europe, he has lived in Orange County and Santa Ana for 20 years, and has long been a true local.

Second, he's rich! The biggest apartment in Santa Ana is built by his company! Maybe it can't compare to the ones on the Forbes list, but compared to the average millionaire and multimillionaire, his assets are beyond their expectations!

This year, a county councilor in Orange County had a health condition that sadly passed away in the middle of his tenure.

There is a vacancy in the county councillor in Orange County.

A new public servant must be added to serve the people.

McNugget Mahon, who was originally going to run for the next election, felt that this was an opportunity given to him by God, and if he let it go, God would come and punish him!

He decisively chose to participate in this campaign.

At the very beginning.

Everything went very well.

There were only eight candidates when the report came in.

McNuggets Mahon spent a small amount of money to get some newspapers and private investigators to find out all kinds of information about the remaining seven candidates.

Including whether there are any handles left or something.

After the end of the investigation.

McNugget Mahon feels stable!

Because the remaining seven candidates except him almost each have their own problems.

He regarded his two biggest opponents, the two candidates of the local elephant party and the donkey party, one of whom had been sued for an indecent crime a year ago, and if he cracked down on this, he could easily make the other party unable to get along. The other one is not much better, the private investigator hired by McNugget Mahon even filmed the video of the other party's cheating!

These two of the most formidable opponents are passed!

The remaining five opponents, four of whom are members of small local parties, are more likely to get involved than nothing.

The only threat was the black lawyer, Jackson Nippai, who was also a native.

This guy has a good network in the local area, and he has a very good public opinion image in the local media! He often does some free lawsuits for those middle-class families, and ruthlessly reaps a wave of prestige from the most important voters.

But it's okay.

The guy McNuggets Mahon felt most threatening was a poor man...... Of course, it was the poor egg in the eyes of McNugget Mahon.

No matter how poor Jackson Nippai lawyer is, since he can become a lawyer, he can still guarantee an income of about $00,000 to $200,000 a year. Even in the world's top power, this income is above the norm of the middle class.

Not really poor.

It's just that McLegget Mahon, who has a net worth of hundreds of millions, doesn't take this black lawyer seriously at all, and he has at least 00 ways to defeat this black lawyer from the front or secretly to win this election.

It was all going well as planned.

But just as the official campaign was about to begin, things went unexpected.

There were eight candidates in total, and one was added at the last minute.

McNugget Mahon, who didn't want to make a fuss, certainly wouldn't allow this to happen! He immediately filed a complaint with the California Supreme Court, saying that it was illegal for the local county government to temporarily add candidates!

The new candidate is definitely not legitimate!

Pity......

His complaint was rejected by the court.

The court ruled that the ninth candidate was valid and that the Constitution of the Federation provided that every citizen of the Federation had the right to vote.

McNugget Mahon was surprised.

He has friends in the California Supreme Court, and under normal circumstances, if he initiates the complaint.

That friend will definitely help him.

When he failed, he approached his friend, who told him: Don't run for election, you won't win this time.

Of course, McNugget Mahon wasn't happy.

He's a businessman.

For this campaign, not to mention the connections and favors that have been paid before and after. The monetary contribution alone has exceeded 000,000 US dollars. It's true that he has money, but he hasn't reached the point where he sees $000,000 as nothing.

After all, he is a billionaire, and most of his workplaces are actually those houses, and the real liquidity is about 0 million US dollars.

At his behest in every way.

The friend from the California Supreme Court told him that the ninth candidate's surname was Adams......

Adams?!

What's so great about Adams?!

In the entire Federation, Adams did not have 000,000, at least 500,000! Not Roosevelt, not Kennedy, not Bush!

Why can't he McNugget Mahon win!

Afterwards, the angry McNugget Mahon spent another sum of money, and through some channels, finally learned that this "Addams" was not an ordinary Addams.

He was confused.

Although he is very distressed about money, as a person with vested interests, he understands that if he really meets that Adams. He has no chance of winning, and in order to avoid losing money further, McNugget Mahon is ready to stop the campaign that has cost him a lot of money.

But at this time.

Someone came to the door and offered to help him win this election. The premise is to cooperate with them, be one of them, and by the way, let that "Adams" run to lose.

After the person who came revealed some of the identities of the other party.

Unwilling to admit defeat like this, McNugget Mahon soon chose to cooperate with the other party.

Tonight.

After a busy day, McNug. Mahon returned to his villa in Santa Ana.

Sit in front of your computer.

Opened the website that he has been following every day lately.

This is the official website of the county government in Orange County, Los Angeles, and this time the county councilor election work, the website has set up a page for voters in Orange County to more intuitively understand the conditions of the nine candidates.

Thereinto.

Political contributions were put in the first place.

After all, on the surface, the amount of political donations has been advertised by the federal government as the level of support received.

In accordance with the previous law.

Only a politician with many supporters will have as many political donations and supporters as he does!!

"Hmph...... What about Adams?!"

"I have allies!

"My political contribution is more than twice as much as yours......"

McNug. Mahon first opened his page and was satisfied with the political donation, seeing that his political donation had changed from $320,000 to $3.45 million!

That means a political donation campaign he made today in Anaheim, Orange County's second-largest city, bringing him and his campaign team $240,000 in campaign funding!

"Even Adams! All you have is influence and connections! And America is the land of money, and my allies have money that these old antiques can't even think of!"

This one is stable!!

With such a pleasant thought.

Happily clicking on the rest of the candidates' pages.

There were originally seven candidates, and there was basically no progress. The top two candidates were the Elephant Party and the Donkey Party, with one contributing $230,000 and the other $220,000.

The $230,000 Elephant candidate is the second place in the race so far, after McNugget Mahon.

It's just that it's second place.

It's still a big cut short of McNugget Mahon.

What's more, the other party still has a bad handle, and it is easy to attack!

Even without new allies, the two candidates remain vulnerable to McNugget Mahon.

What's more, now that you have a new ally that is terrifyingly powerful, even if you cooperate with the other party, you may make yourself a vassal. But McNugget Mahon was still happy. To be a vassal of such a family, it is impossible for many people in the United States to have this kind of right!

This one is not stable!

He thought again.

It was only in the end that he opened Adams, who had been improvised and forced in, making his campaign work twists and turns, and making him unhappy lately.

"I remember yesterday it was $450,000 ......"

McNugget Mahon remembers this number.

During this time, he would open the official website of Orange County every day before going to bed. Looking at the amount of political donations above for this campaign, it makes him very happy to see himself at the top of the leaderboard every time.

He clicked on the last candidate's web page.

Ten seconds later.

“fxxk!”

He let out an earth-shattering roar.

"Impossible!"
