What is everyones opinion on write in candidates?
Here in the local area, ive noticed on just about every election, someone who loses in the primary will start campaigning again to be a write in candidate in the fall because they believe since the republican fields are so heavy, they would actually have a chance in November because of a two horse race.
Its happening in two local races this year for Whitley County alone.
Whats some of your thoughts? One would think why even have a primary. Others would think why not just wait until November to vote and write in whoever you want? If im not mistaken, a couple of years ago, a Mccreary County election sheriff one in the fall by write in after losing in the primary.
Should there be laws disqualifying you if you run in the primary and lose or is it fair game?
