The big election is fast approaching. In the Jot Em Down Store, Lum enters to get the latest word about the polls from Abner and Cedric. Has Lizabeth been out whipping up the crowds for Abner? Who has been circulating those vicious rumors about him?

With the women in town all on Abner’s side, this ought to be a landslide election. So why is Lum having doubts? Is he just trying to keep a realistic outlook on the election? Cedric sets out on a squirrel hunt since the time for campaigning has reached an end, right after he delivers a letter for Lum to the county seat.

Will there be time for a wave of supporters to arrive for Abner. What does Lum hope will happen with the timely arrival of his letter?
