To drive the point home. Some guy a couple of decades ago ran for a judgeship in, I believe, Tacoma. He had almost no qualification and actually admitted it later, but he still won. It was because he had the same name as some famous and popular actor. So many ignorant voters just went for that.
Never run against John Wayne.
