Around the corner

I was waiting for a more final result, but it seems that 99,84% of the votes is all they are gonna analyze tonight. Thank you God, thank you whoever did this, thank you for who leaked the pictures (I'll get to that in a minute), thank you a thousand times. The little joys we have in life.
I said (and HE said) he was gonna win in the first round? WROOONG!!!! Sometimes I hate being wrong. This was definitely not one of those times. Plain and simple: 48,60% of the votes is not enough to win an election in the first round.
A lot of corrupt people got elected in spite of being corrupt, including our former president that was taken out of office because he was stealing money. Ridiculous no? A lot of people who shouldn't even be allowed to represent the people, but anyway, I won't even go there now.
Now, explanation for the money: this money that you see here was found with two people that are connected to the president's party and/or the president himself, while trying to buy a document (a fake one, kind of made on demand) that would incriminate one of the main candidates of the other big party, the one that poses most opposition on him. He tried to incriminate the guy that now is the governor of São Paulo, in an attempt to destabilize the whole party. But it back fired. The people were arrested, more of his close friends had to be "pushed aside" from his party and his campaign.. a mess, to sum it up. And the pictures of the money were being held until the end of the elections by the wrong people, so they wouldn't be a bad spot on the president's "clean slate" (very, very ironic. more than I can express in simple writing). And then, like magic, 2 days before the elections, they sort of appeared. The power of the press in a bitch, no?
I don't know what will happen now. But do you know how children get hopeful with a little treat? That's me right now. Just around the corner, hidden behind the piles of money... maybe there's some hope?
