America is full of people that are political dumb***es. This latest case is just another example.Nearly 300,000 Californians voted for an arrested gun smuggling candidate Tuesday. State Sen. Leland Lee was arrested in March on gun smuggling charges and dropped out of the race. He did no campaigning after he was arrested but his name remained on the ballot. He was polled as having 8% of the votes at the time he was arrested. The actual results showed an increase to 11% in the actual election.My guess is that people saw his name and thought "I've heard of that guy" so they voted for him. Don't bother blaming it on Californians (strange lot that they are) for this could have easily happened in any state. People don't bother with the details. They just vote for party or for a familiar name.http://dailycaller.com/2014/06/04/nearly-300000-californians-vote-for-gun-smuggling-candidate/
