[So it's very possible that, following the whole fiasco yesterday, you started noticing signs tacked up around Vista Way. And replacing the maps in every information booth in the parks. And slipped under your doorway. And just littered around the ground.

Point is, they're everywhere, and while whoever made them clearly lacks any sort of artistic ability, the point still comes across pretty clearly:

ELECTION RALLY: COME SUPPORT YOUR NEW FUTURE MAYOR!!!!!!!!!!!

4/23 IN THE TRANSPORT CENTER
WE WON'T EVEN MAKE YOU PAY FOR THE PINS OR ANYTHING

#PLANKTON OR PERISH

Even if you managed to ignore all the posters and just happened to pass through the Transport Center by sheer chance, it's going to be very difficult to ignore... whatever's going on in the center of the area.

Plankton's dragged crates away from who-knows-where to make some sort of stand, because he doesn't have the time to put together any actual materials, he has to get started on this campaign thing pronto. He doesn't have a real megaphone, either, but he's got a rolled up poster he's shouting into from where he's standing atop like three crates stacked on top of one another. Regardless of if there's a crowd of people around him by the time you show up or if it's just Richard, his campaign manager and virtually sole supporter, either way he acts as though he's got the undivided attention of the whole city.]

People, people, please. I know you have endless questions about my spectacular new policy ideas, but I can only handle so many questions at a time. Believe me, I greatly value your opinion and want to hear each and every word from all of you.

[He doesn't sound sincere in the slightest, but he's got the ham part of the whole thing down perfectly.]

[Resident Progress City party planner, Ghostave, is incredibly excited about the upcoming food and wine festival. Possibly because he himself is excited about the food and wine. He’s planning on taking the monorail from his home to the mayor’s office and then this bullshit is keeping him from getting there on time.]

You can’t be serious.

[He lowers his megaphone slightly to squint at Ghostave for a second or two. Of course, he doesn't want to discourage possible voters, but also he doesn't appreciate his Really Great Rally being called into question.]

What part of this looks like I'm not serious?

[yourghosthost]

Rod is the mayor. Your holding a rally is making you look inempt.

[He doesn’t...realize this is a thing yet. To him, Sheldon just looks like some sort of wacko.]

[andbegone]

[Of course, he can't blame him-- not every candidate has the vision and initiative to start campaign rallies on the very next day. So of course not everyone has received the news yet, but that's fine. It's better this way.]

Rod was the mayor. He agreed we could vote in a new one, and I'm clearly in the running. In the lead, actually. I'm winning the race already.

[yourghosthost]

...Rod is a moron. He agreed that I could run my Food and Wine Festival, and now he goes and starts political drama.

[You bet he’s salty. This is really gonna get him going.]

[andbegone]

I agree completely. You know, if I was the mayor, every day would be a food and wine festival. And there'd be absolutely no political drama. Ever.

[listen he has a Goal here and Ghostave's personal problems won't stop his campaign]

[yourghosthost]

...serpents and spiders, are you attempting to pander to me.

[andbegone]

Am I?

[he is.]
