Synopsis by Hal Erickson
Dan (John Larroquette) runs for the state assembly, causing a rift amongst the Night Courters when an infuriated Christine (Markie Post) discovers who Harry (Harry Anderson) voted for. On the night of the election, Dan hopes to watch the returns on the courtroom TV, but a fire forces the staff to huddle in the basement--specifically, in the morgue. Telecast one day after the 1988 Presidential election, this episode manages to include the actual results of that race for the purpose of a climactic punchline.
