呢個校園選乜鬼

特蕾西·弗利克 (Tracy Flick) 在今年的高中生選舉中沒有對手。但學校公民教育老師吉姆·麥卡利斯特卻有不同的計畫。一方面是為了建立更民主的選舉，另一方面也為了平息對特蕾西內心深處的憤怒，吉姆說服受歡迎的校隊足球員保羅·梅茨勒也競選總統。混亂隨之而來。

Tracy Flick is running unopposed for this year’s high school student election. But school civics teacher Jim McAllister has a different plan. Partly to establish a more democratic election, and partly to satisfy some deep personal anger toward Tracy, Jim talks popular varsity football player Paul Metzler to run for president as well. Chaos ensues.

故事發生在卡佛高中，崔絲·佛力克是校園的「好學生」，她成績優異、才華洋溢且積極參與各項事務，並且是學生會長的唯一參選人，明確地朝着成功邁進。她與教師大衛有了師生戀情，在戀情曝光後，大衛失去了教職並與其妻琳達離婚。大衛的好友，倫理與道德課的教師麥考瑟對此心有不甘，他知道以崔絲的性格和能力，將來必定有大成就，但她是個會為了更上層樓而利用他人的人，便決定阻止崔絲。麥考瑟找來在校內有高人氣的美式足球隊學生保羅參選，但保羅空有人氣，沒有政治實力。保羅的妹妹泰咪因為女友麗莎被哥哥搶走，憤而參加選舉。此外，麗莎是保羅的助選員。
三位會長參選人輪流發表演說，崔絲對政見侃侃而談，但演說過程中遭到部分學生嘻笑；保羅空有人氣，但沒有政治能力，他的演說全程都在低頭念稿；泰咪上場前被很多人訕笑，她在演說中大肆批評選舉制度，聲稱高中學生會長選舉只不過是為了幫助當選者在未來進入比較好的大學，並揚言自己當選後會解散學生自治會，此話一出，全場歡呼。校方認為泰咪在惹麻煩，罰她停學三天。
在從事編輯畢業紀念冊的工作時，崔絲注意到自己的競選海報沒有黏好，她嘗試把它黏好卻不小心毀了整張海報，於是她憤而撕毀保羅的海報，海報的破片被麗莎發現，但她沒有看到犯案者。麥考瑟質疑兇手是崔絲，他以大衛的事蹟舉例，批評崔絲不該將自己的成功建立在犧牲他人之上，但崔絲認為麥考瑟是無端指控，並強調自己的母親在律師事務所工作。泰咪向麥考瑟表示自己是破壞海報的元兇，因此遭到學校退學，泰咪並被父母安排就讀一所私立女子學校，這讓她暗中竊喜。
選舉前一天，麥考瑟到琳達的家裏修水管，兩人隨後激情擁吻，並相約當日下午到賓館享雲雨之歡。但琳達並未出現，麥考瑟因為眼睛被蜜蜂叮到而過敏，兩人的婚外情也東窗事發。選舉當日，崔絲以一票之差險勝獲勝，而之所以有這一票之差，是因為保羅認為投票給自己是不正當的。麥考瑟在計票時，注意到崔絲在走廊上雀躍狂歡（因為有位計票員先行洩露了結果），他為了阻止崔絲，私藏兩張投給崔絲的選票，讓保羅當選會長。這兩張選票後來被發現，麥考瑟被迫辭職，而他也因為婚外情，與妻子離婚。
崔絲和保羅都上了大學，泰咪在新學校教了新的女友。麥考瑟到紐約尋找事業第二春，成為美國自然史博物館的導遊，只和崔絲再見過一次面，當時的崔絲和某個男性政治家一起搭上了一輛豪華轎車，麥考瑟對此感到厭惡，憤而把手上的飲料丟向那輛車。

Jim McAllister is a teacher of U.S. history and civics at George Washington Carver High School in Omaha, Nebraska. One of his students is Tracy Flick, an overachieving junior whose mother Judith encourages her to strive for success.
Earlier in the year, McAllister’s colleague and best friend, geometry teacher Dave Novotny, was fired from his job and divorced by his wife Linda after engaging in a sexual relationship with Tracy. While McAllister agreed Dave needed to suffer consequences, he resents the lack of repercussions for Tracy.
McAllister struggles to conceive a child with his wife Diane, and subsequently begins to have sexual fantasies of both Linda and Tracy. Appalled by Tracy’s unopposed run for student government president and dreading further proximity to her, McAllister persuades Paul Metzler, a popular and good-natured but dimwitted football player, to enter the race. Sidelined from football with a broken leg sustained in a skiing accident, Paul finds his candidacy gives him purpose. It also infuriates Tracy, who expects to run unchallenged and resents Paul’s popularity and privileged upbringing.
Tammy Metzler, Paul’s adopted younger sister, is dumped by her girlfriend Lisa Flanagan, who becomes Paul’s girlfriend and campaign manager. Tammy exacts revenge by running for president herself. In her speech at a school assembly, she denounces student government as a sham and vows to dissolve it if she wins, rallying the students to a rowdy standing ovation. The principal, Walt Hendricks, retaliates by suspending her, which she does not see as a punishment, but rather a reward.
Late one Sunday night while working on the school yearbook, Tracy sees that one of her campaign posters has come unstuck from the wall. Trying to secure it, she accidentally rips the poster apart, then furiously destroys the other candidates’ campaign posters and discards them in a dumpster, unaware that Tammy is watching.
The next day, McAllister confronts Tracy, suspecting that she removed the posters. She feigns innocence and trades threats with McAllister, but Tammy rescues her by appearing with the torn posters and falsely claiming responsibility in a bid to get herself expelled. Tammy is expelled and her name is struck from the ballot.
McAllister has a tryst with Dave’s ex-wife Linda, the day before the election. She asks him to rent a motel room for an after-school rendezvous, but fails to attend. When McAllister drives to Linda’s house to find her, he is stung by a bee on his eyelid. He returns home to find Linda and his wife Diane talking. Knowing Linda has exposed their encounter, he spends the night in his car.
McAllister oversees the tally of the ballots, which finds Tracy winning by a single vote. Seeing Tracy peering in on the vote count and preemptively celebrating, he spitefully disposes of two of Tracy’s ballots, throwing the election to Paul.
The discarded ballots are later discovered by a janitor who dislikes McAllister, and Tracy becomes president. He is forced to resign, and the election rigging makes headlines. Diane divorces him, taking the house and most of their joint assets.
Publicly humiliated, McAllister leaves Nebraska and fulfills his dream of moving to New York City. He becomes a tour guide at the American Museum of Natural History and begins dating Jillian, a fellow museum worker.
Paul develops an active social life at the University of Nebraska, though without Lisa, who dumps him. Tammy finds a new girlfriend, Jennifer, at her all-girls private Catholic school. Tracy attends Georgetown University, where she similarly isolates herself from her peers due to her work-centric nature and is dismayed that many of her classmates were admitted primarily through connections and legacy admissions.
Tracy misses Dave’s intellect and wonders if he became a novelist as she believed he would; the film shows Dave working in a hardware store in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, where he now lives with his parents.
On a visit to Washington, D.C., McAllister spots Tracy getting into a limousine with congressman Mike Geiger, a Republican representative from Nebraska. Infuriated that she will go through life as she did at Carver, he hurls a cup of soda at the limousine’s rear before fleeing. The film ends with McAllister at the museum posing a question to a group of elementary school children; an overeager little girl is the only one to very excitedly raise her hand. He looks at her, ignores her, then asks, ”anybody?”...
