Primary Election Tuesday, 10/6

Filed under: Announcement

The election is tomorrow. Here are the voting locations and times, courtesy of the Sentinel. Remember that anyone can register to vote immediately prior to voting here in NH. If you plan on voting, please vote for Nick Ryder for at-large city council and write in Ian Bernard for mayor. Even though Nick will make it to the general election regardless of what happens tomorrow, it’s my understanding that if he gets the most votes in the primary, he’ll be listed at the top of the general election ballot. Also, with ten write-in votes (presuming another write-in candidate doesn’t garner more), they are supposed to put my name on the ballot. Of course I’ll be continuing to campaign as “Nobody”, but they won’t allow that on. Also, I expect they will continue to attempt to keep me off the ballot even if I do get write-in votes (as they are attempting to unregister me to vote), but go ahead and write Ian Bernard in anyway – we’ll see what happens!

I thought you would only run as “Nobody”? Writing in your “slave” name is not that.

Slave or free, Ian Bernard is *NOT* nobody. Although, George Donnelly may be.

I’m voting for a couple potential city councilors

However, how do I know which ward I am in?

George,

I think I addressed your concern in the post. Should I get on the ballot, I’ll continue to make it clear I will not take office and a vote for me is a vote for Nobody!

George Donnelly is hardly a nobody.

You’re going to have to help me here: Where do I go to register and vote? And is your official name simply “Ian Bernard,” “Ian ‘Nobody’ Bernard,” or what?
You may phone me with the answer, as I’m likely to be too busy to be checking the forums.

Incidentally, did I point out that Emily Dickinson wrote your campaign jingle?:

I’m Nobody! Who are you?
Are you – Nobody – too?
Then there’s a pair of us?
Don’t tell! they’d advertise – you know!

How dreary – to be – Somebody!
How public – like a Frog –
To tell one’s name – the livelong June –
To an admiring Bog!
