How interesting. While dissecting statements made during the Republican National Convention, the Associated Press helpfully points out that vice-presidential nominee Gov. Sarah Palin only garnered 616 votes in her 1996 election to the Mayoral post in Wasilla, Alaska, and the 909 votes in her 1999 re-election campaign. The AP also helpfully does the math for you, a total of 1,525 votes.
In my 2004 campaign for an At-Large seat on the Floyd County Council, I drew a little over 2,100 votes. Sure, I finished seventh of seven, but still, over 2,100 votes. I guess this means I am at least qualified to serve as Vice-President, under the standards currently in play.
So I got that going for me.
