Seems like people are voting for Robert Kennedy too, not sure if they are unaware he dropped out or they are the never trump type.

I have to assume at least 2% of voters choose a completely random name on their ballot

Isn't he still on the ballot in some places? Like he dropped out but after some legal time limit or whatever

[–] Thorngraff_Ironbeard@hexbear.net 15 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Sounds about right. In bad country they keep people who don't even wanna run on the ballot.

In bad country fake candidates are added to the ballot to fool the people into thinking anyone other than dear leader is in the running

Yep, he was still on mine. I sincerely hope he carries a few districts here just so that Trump doesn't completely run away with it in this hellhole of a state, but what the hell can you do.
