Medford High School elected a new Student Body President every year, and the new president was chosen from the current twelfth-grade students.
To ensure the position wasn't vacant for too long, the new Student Body President was generally elected within the first week of the new school year.
The election timeline was very tight.
While other interested students were still registering, Cavanaugh, who was well-prepared, had already started to build momentum for herself.
This girl shrewdly posted her campaign slogans at the school gate and in the teaching building in advance.
Cavanaugh: Make Medford Great Again!
Cavanaugh: Long Live the Medford Football Team!!!
And other brainwashing slogans.
Time came to Friday. After rounds of selection, Young Sheldon and Cavanaugh successfully defeated "numerous" opponents and became the final candidates for the Student Body President together.
"Mike, do you think Sheldon can succeed?" Lena, sitting in the first row of the school auditorium, turned to look at Mike beside her.
Yes, today was the final moment to elect the Student Body President of this term.
The remaining two candidates had gone to the side of the stage to prepare.
In the middle of the stage, a temporary podium had also been built.
In the seats below the auditorium, there were dense crowds of students from all grades.
"Who knows." Facing the girl's question, Mike seemed uninterested.
"Smart people" knew that Student Body President was a thankless job, so Young Sheldon's real opponent had always been only Cavanaugh, who was keen on power.
If Young Sheldon really wanted to be this president, Missy had actually given him the answer before.
It just depended on whether he used it or not.
Mike, who didn't care about this, turned to look at the girl on the other side and asked, "Mia, are you sure your grandmother specifically asked to see me?"
Although the girl hadn't confessed yet, Mike knew that Mia's grandmother was Queen Renaldi of Genovia.
Meeting a queen was still a little exciting to think about.
"Yes, maybe this weekend, Joseph will come to pick you up." Mia had a faint smile on her face, but she was thinking that Mike's expression would definitely be interesting when he knew her identity as a princess.
Through unremitting etiquette study during this period, the girl's temperament became increasingly dignified.
However, her careless personality engraved in her bones would still show inadvertently.
Speaking of which, Mia, who revealed her true looks on the first day of school, shocked a large group of people.
But as the girl intentionally moved closer to Mike in the following week, the halo on her seemed to disappear again.
People's attention was focused more on Mike.
As for Mike, students were already used to beautiful women appearing around him.
With Mike and Mia's casual chat in the auditorium, time soon came to the moment of electing the Student Body President.
Principal Tom, with a head full of white hair, slowly walked to the center of the stage and said into the microphone, "Very happy to meet you young people again. You make me feel that my old bones are much younger..."
The old principal, nearing seventy, was joking, but in fact, his state was much older than in the first half of the year.
If nothing unexpected happened, he should resign from the principal position at the end of this year.
"...This Student Body President election will be a novel experience for you." After chatting a few words about daily life, the old principal was obviously physically weak.
So, he turned sideways to look at the side of the stage and said, "The next election process will be handed over to Mr. Tim."
Tim Meadows, the Dean of Students at Medford High School, was a gentle and capable young man at heart.
Only because of his position, he was not very popular among students.
"Quiet down, everyone~"
Tim took over the old principal's position, stood in front of the microphone, mentioned discipline briefly, and continued: "The Student Body President campaign has reached the final moment. Now only two heavyweight figures are left for the ultimate duel~"
This Dean of Students was full of energy, using a unique broadcasting tone to create a tense atmosphere. Those who didn't know would think a boxing match was taking place.
"They are Nell Cavanaugh versus Sheldon Cooper! One of them will become your Student Body President for this semester..."
Saying that, Tim directed the students' gaze to the side of the stage where the two candidates were preparing.
Facing the students' gazes, Cavanaugh in a beige long dress smiled and waved to everyone.
Compared to her, Young Sheldon, who specifically wore a small formal suit and a small bow tie, seemed a bit stiff at this time.
"Please listen carefully to the speeches later and make a serious choice..." Before long, Tim pulled everyone's attention back: "Ladies first, please welcome Nell to bring us her campaign speech first~"
After explaining the process, Tim, who was about to yield the stage, suddenly turned back to the microphone and said, "Let me say one more thing, please maintain discipline in the venue while listening to the speeches!"
This was the duty of the Dean of Students.
However, Tim still underestimated the students' rebellious psychology.
"Bite me~"
Accompanying the warning, an arrogant voice instantly rang out from below the stage.
"Brad Kent, detention for two days!"
"Do you want to try detention for a week?"
Tim's gaze was torch-like, accurately picking out the student causing trouble below at once, and educated with a dark face: "Behave yourself~"
After waiting a while longer, seeing no students causing trouble, the Dean of Students went to the side of the stage, showed a smile, and said to Cavanaugh, "Go ahead, don't be nervous."
Of course, Cavanaugh wasn't nervous. This girl had prepared everything in advance.
In a white dress with a sweet smile on her face, she looked like a girl next door at this moment.
"First, I want to tell everyone, I love football." Cavanaugh's tone was like chatting with friends, then she pointed at Mike in the first row, as if suppressing enthusiasm, cheering restrainedly: "Long live the Medford football team! Long live Mike!!"
No Texan dislikes football.
Mike's performance in the school football team last year was also obvious to all students.
As everyone's emotions were mobilized, loud cheers immediately erupted in the auditorium.
This cheer was for the school football team and also for Mike, the star player.
Smart Cavanaugh effectively borrowed momentum, obviously very successfully.
"Mike, did she greet you in advance?" Lena looked at the stage with dissatisfaction.
This practice of borrowing momentum to promote oneself was neither polite nor respectful for people unfamiliar with each other.
"No, but no need to fuss..." Mike wasn't petty enough to argue with a girl over such a thing.
"She got off easy." Lena shook her head.
As the leader of Mike's fan club, Lena could now be considered a campus celebrity in the school.
If she wanted, targeting a girl wasn't difficult.
But since Mike had spoken, Lena naturally wouldn't overstep her authority.
"I have one more thing to tell everyone." On the stage, Cavanaugh continued her performance: "Actually, I am also a Christian..."
"Long live God!!!"
As everyone knows, being religious is politically correct in Texas.
You are religious, I am also religious, then we are one of us.
Plus the practice of posting slogans before the election, Cavanaugh's whole set of combo punches won her a lot of goodwill from students.
"There's nothing much to say about my situation, let me talk about my competitor today!" After winning a certain degree of favorability, Cavanaugh revealed her fangs and directed the spearhead at her opponent Young Sheldon.
"As far as I know, my opponent Sheldon is an atheist..."
Listening to the girl talking eloquently, Young Sheldon on the side of the stage widened his eyes.
Launching a sneak attack strategy on a ten-year-old boy was obviously a bit unsportsmanlike.
