Grammar
Hope+would
Hello everybody! Could someone help me to understand this sentence?
"The Senate campaign last week, which she hoped would add legitimacy to her government, was marred by violence."
In this sentence, I don`t understand 'she hoped would' part. I was taught, 'hope' comes with '(that) + Subjective + Verb'. But, I don`t see any subject between 'hoped and would'. Can somebody explain this to me in grammatically or else? Thanks in advance!
