Oh no! Pumpkin shortage!

As in any election, there are alway unforeseen factors which come into play. In this day and age, it may be an attack, or a hostage or a sickness.

The pumpkins are feeling it too. Because of the dry weather we experienced this summer, local pumpkin supply has been endangered. That's right. There's a shortage.

Local growers say that the pie pumpkins have been the first to sell out - and that is the size we use in this political pumpkin chunking.

But have no fear - we are importing our pumpkins!
