VP candidate for Non Affiliated (2012)

Running mate with nominee: David C. Byrne (b. 1964)
Popular vote: ? (0.00%)
Electoral vote: 0/538

The campaign:

Kennesaw, Ga.-based David C. Byrne, a perennial write-in candidate for President and Governor of Georgia since 2000, declared he was in the race for a fourth attempt at the White House in July 2012. He named Taralyn T. Harris of Woodstock, Ga. as his running-mate. Their campaign was a stealth, under the radar effort.

The Byrne/Harris ticket were registered write-ins in Alaska (where write-in vote results were not deconstructed), Florida (zero votes received), and Georgia (2 votes). In the event of their victory there would have been a snag with the Constitution since both were residents of the same state.

Byrne ran in 2016 and 2020 as well.
