Ecuador Officials Reject Donkey as Candidate
Post Star ^

Posted on 11/16/2012 3:28:43 PM PST by nickcarraway

The demand of dozens of citizens has been denied in the Ecuadorean city of Guayaquil: There will be no jackass running for the legislature.

At least 40 people paraded their candidate through the city's streets to the electoral council offices. Mr. Burro even wore a tie. But officials refused to even let them in the door on Thursday, even though backers had dummied up a mock voter registration card showing the candidate's photo superimposed on a man wearing a business suit.

Donkey backer Daniel Molina told local television stations the goal was to call voters' attention to the seriousness of the February election, not to insult any party.

This is great. If we got rid of all our jackasses, we would have no one to vote for... :)

For what it's worth, donkeys are some of the sweetest animals I know. Well, except that one that tried to stomp me, but it was my fault.
