Senator Odell Mondale
The San Andreas Network team conducted an interview with Senator Odell Mondale. Due to his busy schedule, the interview wasn't broadcasted, however, the citizens of San Andreas can read more about his political views and ideas in the written version of the interview which can be seen below.
Reporter Patricia Asaro: Mister Mondale, can you tell us, why did you become a politician?
Senator Odell Mondale: I became a politician because I always wanted to be a part of a group who decides. I want to make people's living good. That's why I became a Senator, to make this State better for all of us. Less crime rate, better schools, better job opportunities and so on.
Reporter Patricia Asaro: When you look back at your career so far, would you say that you succeed in your intention to make San Andreas a better place?
Senator Odell Mondale: That's a good question miss Asaro, and no, I still didn't succeed. Crime rate in this State is huge, and I'm working on lowering it, through laws and acts. I was elected as a Senator of Fourth District. That's East Los Santos. Working alongside with Department of Justice, we're trying to reduce the crime rate. It can be seen in a couple of Acts that I wrote, such as:
The Evasion Act of 2020
The Life Imprisonment Act of 2020
The Records Act of 2020
My goal is a successful prosecution of people who are committing felonies. The next bill I'm planning to place on the Senate floor is legalization of marijuana. I think that would lower the crime rate in this city. Republican Senators will be against that, but it is worth trying.
Reporter Patricia Asaro: What is your opinion about punishment versus rehabilitation?
Senator Odell Mondale: It depends, if it's a repeated offence, then punishment is a better solution.
Reporter Patricia Asaro: What are your relations with Secretary of State, Mister Frank Underhill?
Senator Odell Mondale: We are colleagues, even though we are in different political parties.
Reporter Patricia Asaro: Who is Odell Mondale privately? What are your hobbies?
Senator Odell Mondale: I like golf. I saw the Chief of the LSPD a few times on the field, but I'm still afraid to challenge him. (Chuckles.)
Reporter Patricia Asaro: Is there something that you'd like to say to the citizens from the Fourth District, or to the citizens of San Andreas in general?
Senator Odell Mondale: Crime is not a solution. Send your kids to school, not on the streets.
