A phone call has Lum on edge, but Abner tells him it’s too early for the votes to be counted yet. With the mail-in ballots, it can take up to three extra days to count them all. The gents share a little relief to know that their rival for mayor is just as jumpy as they are.
The vote counting is well underway, which Lum learns when the phone calls continue. How long should it take to count 195 ballots anyway? The gents continue to praise the influence Lizabeth had on getting the women out to vote.
Is Abner’s fear that Squire has tampered with the ballots founded? It doesn’t take long for the results to come in. Celebrations are in store when Abner finds he has more votes than Ezra. But wait! There is someone else who has even more votes than Abner!
