Summary
After signing the Declaration of Independence, Josiah Bartlett took off across the US and found himself a plot of land in French Territory, his son naming it after himself during the peak years of westward expansion in 1826.
Sixty years later, Bartlett has survived the admittance of Minnesota to the Union. Josiah Bartlet, grandson of the founder, is an upperclassman tutor, married to his wife Abigail, the town doctor, and raising his three daughters. While he shares a name with the town, he is not Mayor: until now. Until Mercantile owner Leo McGarry, schoolteacher Josh Lyman, and saloon owner Toby Ziegler decide to run his campaign to oust incumbent Mayor Bob Russell, who everyone calls “Bingo Bob” behind his back. Complicating matters is 12-year-old orphan Donna Moss, who stowed away across the border from Manitoba. Also throwing his hat into the ring is Matthew Santos, a Catholic former Texas cowboy who settled in Minnesota and recently became engaged to one of the McGarry daughters. Finally, unlikely candidate Sam, a Christian orchard farmer, is raising his daughter Polly and mourning the loss of his wife in a scarlet fever outbreak. Can one of these three very different candidates come out on top?
