| Description: |
The executive vice president of American Cablevision had just gotten some very bad news. Three years of hard work securing the El Paso, Texas cable franchise were unexpectedly unraveling, just two days before the final city council vote. Shaken by the news, he flew immediately to El Paso to try and regain majority support. By the evening of the last day, however, the swing voter he needed couldn't be found, either at home or work.
