Synopsis by Hal Erickson

It's a Presidential election year, and the leading candidates are Popeye, representing the Spinach Party, and Bluto, heading the Blutocratic Party. When the result of the election comes in (apparently the same day the two candidates start campaigning!), it turns out to be a tie. The deciding vote belongs to "farmerette" Olive Oyl, the only resident of Green County. Popeye and Bluto both hightail it to Olive's farm, hoping to win her support by helping with the chores. Eventually, however, the usual slapstick nonsense prevails, and the outcome of the election is determined by a little spinach power.
