Winning elections

 It’s fairly easy.  The Carbon County, Pennsylvania, Registrar of Voters released a list of 41 races in Carbon County that were won by write-in votes.  They included Borough Council seats, constables, judges of elections, inspectors of elections, auditors, and a tax collector.  A number of those offices were won by candidates with one vote each.  

I wrote my name in for Constable of Towamensing Township.  I have no idea what a Constable does, but I’m assuming from the name I’d be allowed to carry a gun and maybe shoot people.  I didn’t win.  Somebody named Beth Ritter Guth received nine write-in votes.  Next time I’ll have to campaign.
