Vance Connor was in the same class at Springfield High School as [[Homer]] and [[Marge]]. Vance and Homer ran against each other for the position of senior-class president in the student council elections. Vance, who was the class vice president at the time, was a lot more professional than Homer in his campaign. He gave a speech where he talked about the policies he helped implement as vice president, including sending three mathletes to the state finals, and germinating all the tenth graders lima beans. Meanwhile, Homer fumbled his speech and was a laughing stock to the whole school. When the time to actually vote for the class president came along, the students decided that it would be funny to vote for Homer as a joke and laugh at him all through high school, and at every reunion. Upon hearing this, [[Principal Dondelinger]] had [[Lenny]] and [[Carl]] dispose of the ballot box by burying it in the forest and Vance Connor was declared the winner.
