Mm!

What happened to the guy?

He's doing 90 days.

I'll give him another $500

when he gets out.

He'll send me flowers

for such a nice payday.

Okay, I'll give him $1,000.

As we've been reporting,

Stephen Green

had an easy reelection tonight,

but the real story

is right here,

in a gubernatorial race

that's too tight to call

between upstart candidate

Penelope Nelson

and Hollywood megastar

Hank Harrison.

We have really done

something incredible.

No matter what happens tonight,

we have done

something incredible.

[Cheers and applause]

It was a very steep hill

to climb indeed.

Ms. Nelson is going to need

a huge turnout

in Los Angeles

and the Bay Area

if she has any hope of eating

into Mr. Harrison's margins.

Again, very discouraging news

for Ms. Nelson's campaign

and her supporters.

Hank Harrison,

one of the country's

most popular television

and movie stars,

has been in the public eye

for over three decades.

And with 76%

of precincts reporting,

if he can maintain that lead,

he'll be our next governor.

We have just learned

that Santa Barbara,

San Joaquin,

and Sacramento Counties,

all bellwether counties,

have reported,

and all three

have gone narrowly

for Hank Harrison.

This is a devastating blow

to Ms. Nelson's campaign.

Sacramento must also

be particularly disappointing

for her, as, traditionally...

- You okay?

- Yeah, I'm okay.

As goes Sacramento County,

so goes California.

And we're still waiting

for results

from Los Angeles County

and the Bay Area to come...

Okay.

We just got word.

Los Angeles County

has reported,

and Penelope Nelson

is over the top.

Hey!

Hey!

My God!

[Cheers and applause]

What an incredible victory

for Penelope Nelson.

Penelope Nelson,

who ran her campaign

on passion and promise

but so very little money,

will be the next governor

of California.

Un-f***ing-believable.

Un-f***ing-believable!

[Cheers and applause]

[Shrieks]

Thank you!

Thank you!

Thank you, California!

Thank you!

[Cheers and applause]

And at the governor's mansion

earlier, this was the scene.

What a feeling!

[Chuckles]

[Cheers and applause]

Nice.

Hey!

There she is.

Oh!

Oh, thank you,

thank you, thank you.

And you.

Thanks.

[Sighs]

Wow!

I think it's, "Wow, Governor."

Absolutely!

Wow, Governor!

I got a lot of work to do.

So do both of you.

Well, I'm losing her.

I'm losing her

to medical school.

This is her swan song.

Actually,

I'm gonna withdraw my apps.

Really?

Really.

Well, I got to get reelected

in four years,

and I can't get stabbed twice,

you know.

Oh, we'll think of something.
