124
00:07:19,001 --> 00:07:21,000
CAN REALIZE THAT 20,000 VOTES 

125
00:07:21,001 --> 00:07:23,000

ARE QUITE A NUMBER OF VOTES.

127
00:07:26,001 --> 00:07:28,000
BUT I THINK ALL OF US CAN ALSO  

128
00:07:28,001 --> 00:07:31,000
REALIZE THAT WHEN YOU CAST THAT 
MANY VOTES, THERE ARE GOING TO  

129
00:07:31,001 --> 00:07:33,000
BE A LOT OF VERY IMPORTANT VOTES

130
00:07:33,001 --> 00:07:35,000
THAT WILL BE CAST OVER THE  

131
00:07:35,001 --> 00:07:38,000

BUT BEYOND ALL OF THAT I THINK  

133
00:07:41,001 --> 00:07:43,000
THE REAL MEASURE OF WHAT WE HAVE

134
00:07:43,001 --> 00:07:45,000

135
00:07:45,001 --> 00:07:49,000

154
00:08:38,001 --> 00:08:40,000
BUT THE REAL MEASURE OF BILL  

155
00:08:40,001 --> 00:08:42,000

166
00:09:08,001 --> 00:09:09,000

168
00:09:10,001 --> 00:09:13,000
