No timeline is mentioned, so springtime of their 8th grade year. Which makes no sense, why are they holding elections when the school year is almost over?
Plot
It's election time for Stoneybrook Middle School, and Kristy decides, with some prodding from Stacey and Claudia, to run for 8th grade class president. Mallory also decides to run for 6th grade secretary. Jessi helps Mallory with her simple campaign, and all the other girls help Kristy, with Claudia acting as campaign manager.
Kristy becomes very un-Kristy in this book. She forgets deadlines, starts running late, kind of half asses her way through life and starts neglecting the Krushers. She fails a science test not once, but twice. She then realizes she has taken on too much and drops out of the race. Everyone seems to understand. Mallory wins her election.
Also, Jamie Newton is trying to learn how to ride a bike and is a serious crazy person about it. And he sucks at it.

Takeaways
Claudia comes up with the slogan "K+" for Kristy's campaign. I don't think that is that great.
Kristy's competition is Pete Black, Alan Gray and Grace something. If Alan and Grace are really the horrible students that the girls always say that they are, how do they have the GPA's to run in the first place. Kristy votes for Pete Black and he wins.
During one of the campaign events, Grace has like a mini movie crew recording people. At the end, her and Kristy get into it and Kristy looks right into the camera and tells Grace to go off and be a loser. It's super mean. But Grace and Cokie are bitches, so I get it.
Jamie is a complete moron about his bicycle. So his parents like order it from somewhere and it gets delivered when babysitter is there. So she puts it together and then they start walking up and down the driveway. Jamie cannot grasp it, but for some reason he asks his dad to remove the training wheels and his dad FUCKING does it! Why does he do that? What a terrible father. Jamie is like 4, I highly doubt he knows what is best for himself. Also, while every single babysitter spends all their time walking Jamie up and down the driveway, his little sister Lucy is just sitting in a playpen that entire time. Awesome.

Best character
I would have to say Claudia. She runs Kristy's campaign for her and does all the posters, pins, marketing materials, etc. And then Kristy drops out of the race and Claudia is just like meh, whatever is best for you.

Worst character
