A rookie city council candidate who twice showed up too late to vote in his own election in Hoxie, Arkansas - resulting in a tie set to be broken on Thursday by a game of chance - has some advice.

"It doesn't matter what you're doing - get out there and vote!" said Cliff Farmer, whose 223-223 tie with incumbent City Council Member Becky Linebaugh will be decided by dice, cards or a coin toss at 11 a.m. local time at the Lawrence County Courthouse in Walnut Ridge.

Not sure if true, because its the NY Times

So if he shows up and votes for himself, he wins? What an idiot?

I don't think he's yet qualified to win. They should award it to his opponent based on his stupidity.

Hoxie City Council elections are serious bidness.

too bad there isn't a universal stupid screen for voting

The stupid decide the fate of the country.

Well them and the "I am too cool to cares" because those are the flighty finger in the wind bastards to whom all of the political ads are directed

Completely true, it was basically my hometown. Sadly he was a better candidate and his opponent is kind of a bitch. That said I've used the lumber store he worked for enough time I can promise he could have left for a few minutes to early vote.
