On Election Day at the West End Public Library polling place, Recognizing Man spots Josh Lyman exiting the voting booth and calls him out by name. He mentions seeing Josh's picture often and asks if voters can legally mark Bartlet in multiple ballot columns, probing rules amid apparent confusion. His direct approach kicks off a chain of chaotic voter questions that reveal Toby Ziegler's prank with staged actors, including the Black Man, Asian Lady, and Beggerly Woman. This exchange exposes Josh's frayed nerves and injects comedy into the high-stakes election atmosphere.
