Congressman RaΓΊl Grijalva might have something to worry about if you could elect a breakfast staple to Congress.
An anonymous group has filed paperwork with the Federal Elections Committee in Congressional District 3, calling itself Eat Bacon.
Unfortunately, before you get your cardiologist on board to support the new candidate, know that the address used on the FEC filings are for an empty lot in a gate community in CD3 and none of the names associated with the campaign could be independently verified.
A person claiming to represent the campaign acknowledged the campaign was a viral prank and was the same group that fabricated the Mr. Bean campaign in neighboring Congressional District 2.
The spokesperson, described the campaigns as political statements, βboth as a prank as well as an actual test to see how informed voters are in Tucson.β
For those wondering, Eat Bacon is neither a Democrat or Republican, the pranksters told the FEC that they were an independent.
Unfortunately, the whole campaign is just hogwash.
