Samantha walked into the office of the Inspection Committee and looked around. Eve and Lana had just been talking, and the other employees were all at their desks quietly working. "I'm sorry to interrupt," she said apologetically. "I just wanted to see how everyone is doing, and also to let you all know that this is an election year, and the Minister is running for re-election. But that's not really the main reason I'm here. You see, the Minister is not running unopposed this year. In fact, the person running against him is none other than his Undersecretary, Reagan Taylor, who some of you may know already." Samantha smiled at this point. "I myself am supporting Reagan and have signed on to be her speech writer. Now, if any of you are interested in helping in her campaign, please come and let me know at any time. Otherwise, you are free to support the Minister or any other candidate you choose, but I really hope you all give some serious thought to giving your support to Reagan. After all, sometimes change can be a good thing. And I will be around to answer any questions you might have."
