Qays Alkhairi

 

Qays Alkhairi

VP candidate for Independent (2016)

Running mate with nominee: Ian Gabriel Rodriguez
Popular vote: 0 (0.00%)
Electoral vote: 0/538

The campaign:

Ian Gabriel Rodriguez of Orlando, Fla. filed with the FEC as a write-in candidate for President on June 29, 2016 using the campaign committee name of "'Cause I'm not Trump."

The main website for the Rodriguez campaign has been deleted but there is a tattered remnant of the electioneering that is seen on a website called Show of Hands:

I don't care who they are as long as they are Democrats and\or liberals.

hieverybody1234 Florida 10/31/16
They are!


The Rodriguez/Alkhairi ticket were not registered as write-ins in any state. Circumstantial evidence strongly suggests they were considerably under the Constitutionally mandated age of 35.
