Who the hell cares?
You’re not one to talk given your own thread making history in this board (“Describe x voter,” followed by a random combination of presidential votes). :p

People who are on the run for serious crimes/heavily involved in criminal activity typically don’t vote as they try to avoid interacting with the government as much as possible.
True, but interestingly, serial killers do tend to have an interest in politics, and it’s bipartisan. Ted Bundy was actively involved in GOP politics; John Wayne Gacy was a Democratic precinct captain who infamously took a photo with Rosalyn Carter (and this was AFTER being first convicted of “a violent sex crime”).
Someone on the alternate history timeline years ago wrote a timeline in which Bundy is elected to congress as a Republican from Washington State while continuing to kill in DC.
Oh sh**t, here it is: "In 1972, Ted Bundy joined the reelection campaign of Daniel J. Evans (real life). At this point he's a graduate of the University of Washington and in our timeline would join the staff of the Washington Republican Party and become an assistant to Chairman Ross Davis (who I can't find any information on, other than a few mentions in a Gerald Ford speech proving that he exists outside of Ted Bundy biographies).
But let's say, through some unknown butterfly, an opening in Governor Evans staff emerges and Bundy is given that job instead. Working under Evans he ascends to being a senior assistant to the Governor, maybe even chief of staff. It is the lame duck last term for the long-serving Governor, a prime time for young unknown staffers. He already had alot of personality issues by '72, and there's plenty of evidence that he's probably killed by then, but nothing conclusive until the '74 slayings which are butterflied away here.
In 1976, Daniel Evans was a strong contender for the Vice Presidency under Gerald Ford (see here). Let's say Chief of Staff Bundy manages to make some phone calls or impressions that pushes Evans to the top of Ford's list. According to Evans himself, that would be better for the '76 race and therefore win reelection for Ford. And thus, Ted Bundy possibly becomes Chief of Staff to the Vice President of the United States.
So now it's 1977, and instead of escaping from an Aspen courthouse and joining the FBI's 10 Most Wanted, Ted Bundy is living in a Washington, DC apartment and attending high-class parties. He's got a relatively cushy job, with little stress comparative to other White House staffers, and he's using his sociopathic tendencies to blend in nicely with the Washington, DC elite.
He could spiral this into a job in the West Wing, or perhaps with Evans' endorsement, run for Congress, maybe Washington's 4th District in 1980 (an easy Republican pick-up). He's only 34 years old, his entire political career is ahead of him and he's starting to put an eye on the 1984 Governor's race.
And then it comes out that a series of murders and bludgeonings have followed Daniel Evans and Ted Bundy from Seattle to Olympia to Washington, DC and finally to Yakima. The attempted murder of an undercover reporter investigating the Congressman confirms his homicidal tendencies and Congressman Bundy is the first Congressman in 120 years to be removed from Congress (the Abscam scandal having been butterflied away). It's huge news, and there's no breaking out of small courthouses and hiding out as a hobo in Florida this time. He might be able to afford some decent lawyers, if he doesn't represent himself, but the attempted murder, and perhaps other activity, with the reporter alone is enough to send him into prison.
Probably a Washington state prison, which means he's eligible for the death penalty. His erratic prison behavior in OTL turns up here, and he becomes a big sensation and may even stain all the Republicans with deep ties to Bundy. If enough evidence is presented, or Bundy gives one of his odd semi-confessions, then he might be sentenced to death, and offered the choice of lethal injection or hanging, the only two options under then-Washington state law.
Congressman Bundy could be executed via hanging around 1995 (around 13 years after his trial date), giving all sorts of hilarious interviews and becoming a sort of macabre figure as the murdering Congressman. We'd be on this site speculating about him not getting caught and running for President in 1992 or so."
lol

Also sh**t I didn’t notice this the first time but I love how Rocky is sandwiched in between Bundy and Gacy implying that he’s a serial killer lol.
Blow by blow, the passion dies:
