I don't think Winston finished his meeting with Carrollton either, if we're being technical, and I don't know if there was anything else he wanted to talk to her about.

Nice and cuddly, though playing up the highly-unpopular president in it of itself may result in pushback. Good speech, altogether.

Should I get Maxwell to say his now?

Yes Julie should totally sign that bill, and actually give the Democrats a chance.

Carrollton might actually put her name on the ballot if she doesn't get the nomination, assuming that bill is as harsh on unions as she makes it out to be.
