A typo on a handbill has turned the tide of the election to Abner’s favor. All men are to hand their paychecks over to their wives. Today, Lum discusses the campaign with Dick Huddleston. Dick claims he may not be supporting Abner after that last campaign promise, and Lum has to tell him about the mistake.

Abner is out trying to settle the matter in town, and be honest about his mistake. Cedric enters to report on the speeches being given. He tells about the domestic dispute in his home over the lection.

Abner enters in high spirits to tell about the campaign progress. A batch of sample ballots have been printed, and Abner wants to demonstrate to the women how to vote. Lum is sure his friend will win, but Cedric brings in news that could keep the women from voting tomorrow. There’s a big sale in Mena.
