Apparently, Jonathon Sharkey, otherwise known as the Vampire King, has announced from jail that he’s got plans to run for governor in Minnesota. If you’ll remember from last week, he was sent to jail for threatening to kill a judge and his family. Surprisingly enough, this wouldn’t be the first time he’s considered running for governor. In 2006, he briefly ran as a fringe candidate for Minnesota governor on the Vampyres, Witches and Pagans ticket.

I had no idea that was an actual political party. Truly, America is a free country.

Vampire leaders sure are a great thing in the arts, but…in politics? Would you have a vampire for a governor?
