Great, but impractical summary

Winning Is Everything was awesome. But the summary was pretty far off from the real plot. After D.J.'s party for getting good grades in college, Stephanie feels like she needs to win something. So, she decides to run for class president. But there's a problem; Allie, her best friend, is running for president too. Stephanie goes all out in her campaign, giving away candy, pulling showy-stunts, while Allie's campaign is much more conservative, and only focuses on the school's issues. Allie and Stephanie aren't really getting along, so Allie decides to drop out and become Stephanie's running mate. Then, Stephanie and Allie win! But things aren't turning out the way Stephanie plans. She forgets almost everything for the student councel, and Allie does all of Stephanie's work. Finally, Stephanie realizes that she can no longer be president, since she can't handle the job. But Steph is already president and stuck! Uh-oh. How will she get out of this mess?
