What happens
Gildersleeve, a candidate for mayor of Summerfield, waits out the primary election while juggling his romance with Eve Goodwin and pressure from her mother. In this episode of The Great Gildersleeve, first broadcast on NBC on June 25, 1944, starring Harold Peary, Gildersleeve races between his campaign headquarters and home, where his nephew Leroy and niece Marjorie look on. Mrs. Goodwin keeps pushing for a quick wedding, and election night brings a surprising turn in the vote count.

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.
