![]() The grunge rocker entered the race to become county clerk in Wahkiakum County earlier this month (03Jun09) on behalf of the Grange Party. Novoselic decided to run for office in a bid to urge Washington officials to change the state's policy on allowing candidates to name which political party they are affiliated to - even fictional ones. He added that the recently implemented rule allows electoral candidates to "confuse voters".But the musician has now decided to drop out of the running for the job. He wrote in his Seattle Weekly blog on Friday (11Jun09) that by running under the Grange Party - a civic organisation he heads - he made it "crystal clear: It's wrong for me to drag a private association unwittingly onto the public ballot." |

![]() Krist Novoselic is running for clerk of Wahkiakum County in western Washington. Novoselic is head of his local chapter of the Grange, a civic organization. His election paperwork declares that he's running under the 'Grange Party' banner, even though the Grange isn't a political party. Novoselic tells The Daily World newspaper that he's protesting the state's system that lets candidates say what party they prefer when running for office. He says that's confusing for voters and lets candidates appropriate the names of private associations." Full story here. |
