 That's one of the things they were doing. So they were leaning on people. They were taking the pulse of the nation. Because this is a period, there's no web and there's no newspapers yet, but it is the birth of the beginning of public opinion being really interested in politics and talking about it in the pubs and the taverns. So they're spending money. They've got a suitcase full of cash, and they're trying to get the powerful people to turn to their way and get their supporters to vote for them. So that's one thing they're up to.
