IMDb
Talking Tom refuses to let the CEO run for mayor unopposed, so he does the only thing he can do - enters the race for mayor. With election night fast approaching, Talking Ben comes up with a foolproof plan for winning Talking Tom the vote. But when the CEO gets his hands on the plan, the gang's not sure they'll be able to keep Tom ahead in the polls.

Plot
Previously, the CEO had run for mayor to threaten Tom's company, so he had to run for mayor to save it. Tom starts feeling hopeless and begins to pack his things, though Angela still tells him to keep his hopes up.

Ben comes in, telling them that he just came up with a brilliant strategy to win the election: demonstrate hard work, charm, creativity and honesty. Tom sets out to show the townspeople that he was a hard worker by sweeping leaves, but the CEO erases his work by blowing the leaves with a jetpack. Angela accidentally reveals part of the secret strategy to the CEO.

The CEO humiliated himself when he was unable to pull a weed from the ground, so Tom showed he was the harder worker. Then, Tom walks around, complimenting his citizens, making him more charming. However, he gets a call from Hank, telling him that a plumber looking like the CEO came in and took a picture of Ben's strategy.

So, the CEO made announced his big ideas in front of a large crowd, then films a broadcast that made conspiracy theories about all of Tom's friends. So, Tom realised he had to cheat. He settles on an agreement with Ginger.

At the Mayor Factor, there were three challenges for the mayors to compete in to earn votes and win the election. However, each time, Ginger sabotaged the CEO. He threw marbles on the floor during the juggling contest to make him slip, cut his rope during the rope climbing race, and filled his money blowing booth with marbles.

Angela discovers that Tom had, indeed, been cheating. After Tom won all the challenges, he saw Angela sadly walking away. So, Tom publicly admits to the crowd that he had been cheating, costing him all his votes. However, he makes a speech about how he'd rather honestly fail than win by cheating. This earned him just enough votes back to put him in par with the CEO.

In a desperate attempt, the CEO admits that he spread lies about Tom, stole his strategy and paid for robots to vote for him. This lost him all his votes, and Tom won the election.
