Anchor 1 – Tano Felorin:
"Welcome back to our continuing coverage of the Naboo senatorial race. The latest numbers have just come in. Daven Astrona is holding a narrow lead at forty-four percent, Marcellan Sorelle follows closely at forty-two, and Dominic Praxon trails with fourteen. Tight margins at the top, but that lower number doesn't tell the whole story."
Anchor 2 – Cyelle Var:
"Not at all, Tano. Praxon's campaign has been running on a staunch anti-corruption, pro-Naboo platform. He's positioning himself as the principled outsider, some say too principled, given the state of Republic politics. He's been willing to call out graft and complacency in the Senate, which plays well with reform-minded voters, but might be costing him broader appeal."
Tano Felorin:
"Meanwhile, Sorelle's campaign is steeped in tradition. Very much the candidate of Naboo's cultural elite. He has deep roots here, strong connections to heritage groups, and a message that resonates with anyone wary of too much outside influence. That forty-two percent looks more like sixty percent in the Lake Country districts."
Cyelle Var:
"And Astrona. Well, he's the Republic expansion candidate through and through. His speeches practically glow with promises of new trade routes. He is running on a very strong galacticist platform. Critics argue that means bending too far toward Denon's agenda, among others, but his supporters see it as forward-thinking leadership."
Tano Felorin:
"With only a couple of weeks to go, every appearance matters. Praxon will need a major moment to close that gap. Whether it's a debate, a rally, or some unexpected turn in the narrative. He's running out of time to move the needle."
Cyelle Var:
"And in politics on Naboo, unexpected turns aren't exactly common. We'll be watching closely."
