I am running for President with ilikeverin as my running mate.

I am running for President with Everett as my running mate.

I am running for Vice President as Everett's running mate.

Oh boy.

Well, given that a ticket is considered one unified item on the presidential ballot, I can't see anything whatsoever in established law or in the Constitution that prohibits this sort of thing.  And as far as I can figure, having someone appear on the ballot more than once is not going to make that person more likely to win.

I will say, however, that you should advise your potential voters of Section 11, Clause 1 of the Consolidated Electoral System Reform Act, which reads as follows:

"Where a voter lists only the Presidenitial candidate of a ticket in a Presidential election and this is the sole occurrence of the Presidential candidate on the ballot, then the vote shall be construed to be for the ticket which the Presidential candidate is a member of."

In other words, anyone voting for simply "Lewis Trondheim" will have his or her vote invalidated due to an inability to identify which ticket was meant.  This goes for the other people pulling these shenanigans, as well.

You are welcome to run for a position that does not exist, but any election for this position will not appear on the official ballot until the Senate actually conjures it into being. Tongue

Since my running mate TexasGurl has withdrawn (I don't blame her at all) and causing an obscene amount of trouble with multiple joke tickets doesn't seem particularly beneficial to anyone, I hereby withdraw completely from the Presidential race. My schedule is finally settling down and I wouldn't have sufficient time to manage such a position even in the unlikely event that I was elected.

I shall still be running for Pacific Senate, though I may withdraw from that depending on what happens.

No, sorry, I won't allow that.

I am withdrawing as Vice-Presidential candidate on the Wildcard Presidential ticket.

Additionally, I will be running for re-election as Southeast governor, but that's a Regional issue.

I permanently declare for every Pacific Lt. Governor election until further notice (or my death).

I know this is federal, but whatever.  Tongue
