The dude may have legal problems because he lied about his address on the filing papers.

I don’t see why everyone and their dog can’t run for office when the dead and illegals are allowed to vote.

Seems like a match!

BURIED DEEP IN THE ARTICLE:

“Democracy requires transparency,” José Javier Rodríguez said in a concession video last week. “In order to achieve that, I believe this election requires a full investigation so that those who may have violated the law are held to account and so that such tactics are not used in future elections.”

Oh really José! No way José!
So I guess Trump really did Win 2020 then José since we need a “full investigation” right?

And we’re a REPUBLIC, not a Democracy you filthy socialist.

It would have been perfectly fine if this was done to flip an R seat to D.

The sin was in causing a D to lose their seat.

If the voter is stupid, you don’t deserve their vote.

There was some utterly unqualified guy that ran for a judgeship in western washington around 25 years ago (when I lived there) that had the same name as some famous person. He didn’t campaign, but just registered as a candidate.

Typically, I don’t vote for judgeships unless I’ve studied up on the candidates. If I haven’t, I’m not going to check any of them. But apparently a lot of people do anyway.

He won.

“refusing to say where Rodriguez was, how to reach him, or why a man with no history in politics — a registered Republican until a few months ago — had become an unaffiliated candidate for Florida’s 37th State Senate District. “
~~~~~~~~
This bugs me. Reporters act like they are arresting officers, if they shove a microphone in your face, they assume you are required by law to answer and/or only a criminal hiding something refuses to cooperate with the press.

Oh noes! A mystery candidate bled votes from the Democrat (unless you find all 6000 people and ask them if they would have voted for the Democrat, that's a lie). That's NEVER been done before! / dripping with /s

Really no different that what’s done to us when states give Libertarians a free ride to get on the ballot.

It’s slightly underhanded. But I wouldn’t call it dirty, dirty would be if he changed his full name to be the same as the other person running.

And even that would not rise to the level of fraud. There is no law that says people who happen to have the same name as a major Rep or Dem candidate are prohibited from running.

Gee whiz, an independent person who figured out how to throw a monkey wrench in the Democrat Mob Machine, and it cost him two thousand bucks!

There is hope that the little guy CAN have a say in American Mob Elections.

How many “Libertarians” who routinely throw close elections to Dems are actually libertarians?

Of all the irregularities that have reared their head in this election, the Washington Post chooses to investigate this? Wouldn’t want to spend any time investigating huge pro-Biden vote dumps, would we?
