What happens
George Burns runs for second assistant substitute city councilman from the third district, and Gracie Allen takes charge of his campaign. Early on, a postman reports that almost nobody in the neighborhood plans to vote for him, and Gracie learns that his rival, Gordon Kate, is also unpopular with the neighbors. Gracie visits the neighbor Ray Milan to win him over. The episode is part of the Burns and Allen radio series, first broadcast on May 9, 1944, on CBS and NBC Radio, with Gracie Allen and George Burns in the leading roles.
The Burns house and the neighborhood of the third district, with later scenes at a local radio station.

Listen for: Gracie's scheme to make George's campaign better known and the neighbors' reactions to him.
Written from the episode itself; it never gives away the ending. Every recording is remastered for the stream: cleaned of rumble, hiss and mains hum (and the old TV whine where we found it), then levelled in two passes to steady broadcast loudness, so one show is never quieter than the next.
