Sure, plenty of people had the good taste to write-in Ian McKaye as their pick to take one of the two at-large seats on the D.C. Council. But plenty of others weren’t so modest—-completing ballots which featured themselves. Hey, sometimes you have to do things yourself.
Voted for myself as a write-in candidate for DC council… breathlessly awaiting results…

Live in DC & haven’t voted? I launched a shadow Senator write-in campaign last night! Might feel last minute but since its not a real job… — Megan Hauck (@capitolgirl) November 6, 2012
If you’re uncertain of who to vote for, write me in. DC needs someone who will shake shit up and I’m ready. #election2012 #vote
