... was on the Democratic ballot when I voted today, along with Hillary, Bernie, and Martin O'Malley. Peter Florek was not on the ballot, nor were the other Democratic candidates who dropped out. I had never heard of Steinberg and I checked his website out. He's on the ballot in five states, including Georgia and California (in case Bob wants another choice to ponder) but not in his home state of Florida. He's a personal injury lawyer who does a good bit of social security, veteran's and similar benefits work and has become an advocate for claimant's rights in these areas. I'll be curious to see how he fares. His website basically says, Hillary doesn't need your vote and Bernie's already made his point so vote for me.
Out of curiosity, I checked the Republican ballot to see who was listed. There are 13 names on the ballot but no unfamiliar ones: Bush, Carson, Christie, Cruz, Fiorina, Graham, Huckabee, Kasich, Pataki, Paul, Rubio, Santorum, and Trump.
On both ballots, the names appear in alphabetical order.

At first, I thought you were saying that Michael Feinberg was running. Finally, a candidate I could have gotten behind.
Wait, let me rephrase that.

I'd vote for you Frank.
As long as you made policy by providing two lists of 103 options that matched up into 50 doublets and one triplet according to a Tangredi, or a principle Congress must discover.
I bet we'd have better laws if they were made that way!

And every law must include at least one reference to
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World.
And Maggie Smith would be Secretary of Education.
And Charles Laughton would be Attorney General.
