Just a regular American
A new law that was passed this spring removes unopposed candidates names from election ballots in Indiana and thereby assures them of election to office with 0 votes. The mayor of Lafayette is one such candidate. Even if someone wants to be a write in candidate the deadline has already been passed to do that. This is another example of the government complicating the election process and turning voters off.
What ever happened to allowing people to just write in a name of someone they wanted on election day? Why all the bureaucratic bull? I guess they need to make all these rules just to justify their jobs and to keep the "in crowd" in office.
So I guess a US senator running un-opposed would even get elected with 0 votes. And a Presidential candidate that had no opponent on the ballot in Indiana would be required to have his name removed from the ballot. He would still get votes though, electoral votes. Crazy stuff.
