Marijohn F. Rowe Peterman, July 6, 1940 (Dallas, Tex.) -
VP candidate for Independent (2004)
Running mate with nominee: Andrew J. Falk (b. 1969)
Popular vote: 219 (0.00%)
Electoral vote: 0/538
The campaign:
Andrew J. Falk was a history teacher at University of Texas at Austin at the time he collected most of the signatures required to be a certified write-in in the Lone Star State. But by the election he was a resident of Georgia. Falk turned 35 in this election year which was a factor in his decision to run. Other than telling the media, "I want to exercise as many constitutional rights as I can in my life outside of maybe pleading the Fifth," his platform was sort of a secret.
Calling himself the "anti-candidate," his goal was not to prod his students in Georgia to think like him, but simply to think.
His running-mate was Marijohn Peterman of Austin, Tex. One month before Election Day she married Bentley P. Stansbury, Sr.
Election history: none
