The People's Choice

Working at the local Election Board this week, I have processed approximately 3,000 mail-in ballots. While feeding the ballots into the electronic counting machine, I could see who the folks in this ultra-blue town are favoring: Biden leads about 20 to 1. But that doesn't mean everyone is happy about it. Many ballots were left blank for the presidential contest, while others wrote-in their preferred candidates, an interesting lot, to say the least. Here's who some people in Freeport, Maine would choose as their president:

Mike Tyson (former prizefighter convicted of rape) 

Joey Butafuoco (Long Island auto mechanic who shot his wife in the face, had sex with a minor)

Prince (singer who died of opioid overdose)

Barack Obama (yeah, him)

Young Thug ( the rapper, not just any young thug)

Hillary Clinton (ex-politician, housewife)

Mike Bloomberg (very rich businessman)

Andrew Yang (one-time presidential candidate)

Stephen King (successful author, horror genre)

Bernie Sanders (Senator from Vermont)

Anyone Else

I found it interesting that someone would rather have a dead young black dude (Prince) running the country than a live old white man.
