Sign in if you "wrote in " Jimmy Buffett. and the race

[NYParrotHead]

Voted for JB in a uncontested local race here in the Hudson Valley.
The kids thought it was the greatest thing!
I just hope it gets printed in the paper tomorrow.

@familyof5...where in HV are you. Highland here!

@NYParrotHead and family of 5parrotheads: I'm in Central Valley, near Woodbury Commons. Woo Hoo for the Hudson Valley!

Ahhhh Central Valley! Gasho is a restaurant we have been two several times. Hope all is safe after the superstorm.

If a write in candidate actually wins...how do they find that person?

My write in candidate of choice this time was Clint Eastwood...he is much closer to my political beliefs than JB is. I actually voted for Clint for US Senate since both of my choices were not acceptable to me.

Not sure if this is state, or Illinois law, but write in votes are only counted for "registered" write in candidates. That means those of us working as judges don't have to take the time to count all the votes for Mickey Mouse, Santa Claus, or, yes, even Jimmy Buffett.

I did that once but now I figured they'll think I'm a wise ass and toss my vote out.

Jimmy Buffett almost elected to St. Andrews PSD seat

In one of the Lowcountry’s most bizarre elections on Nov. 6, God, Jimmy Buffett, Bobby Harrell, Goober, Mickey Mouse, John Doe, Colleen Condon, and No Idea all fell just one vote shy.

So did 137 others.

But eight candidates tied with two write-in votes apiece, and they will face off in a special runoff election Tuesday.

At stake is a $5,468-year position on the St. Andrews Public Service District Commission.

“How crazy is this?” asked Christie Holderness, the new manager and former chair of the commission. “I still don’t know the majority of the candidates.”

The candidates include Anthony Ferro, Callie Powell, Ceryl King, Jeff Gladwell, John B Johnston III, Lashaunna Brown, Laura Toney and P. John DeStefano.

Wonder if it was a BN'er and would they admit to it.
