Okla. candidate insists he's not a robot...

[USincognito]

...unlike his incumbent opponent.

Timothy Ray Murray Isn't A Robot - Business Insider

Murray felt the need to point this out because he believes the incumbent in the district, Rep. Frank Lucas is a robot! On his webpage, Murray claims the real Lucas was killed by the World Court over three years ago and replaced with an automaton.

"Rep. Frank Lucas, and a few other Oklahoma and other States’ Congressional Members were depicted as being executed by The World Court on or about Jan. 11, 2011 in Southern Ukraine. On television they were depicted as being executed by the hanging about the neck until death on a white stage and in front of witnesses," Murray wrote. "Other now current Members of Congress have shared those facts on television also. We know that it is possible to use look alike artificial or man-made replacements, however Rep. Lucas was not eligible to serve as a Congressional Member after that time."​

He must be getting his information from The Blaze.

Here's his actual website.

Of course he isn't a robot. Everyone knows the lizard people are not robots.

 

[Nithavela]

Not sure if insane or a ruse to make the other guy more appealing.

 

[DaisyDay]

He only got 5% of the vote, but he is contesting the outcome on the grounds that robots are not eligible.

 

[Nithavela]

I think he may be a fellow discordian.

Where is Kyle Reese when you need him.

Wouldn't it be funny if his claims were true? It's like anything else. It's outside the norm so nobody believes it possible. What better way to get away with something like that? Hide in plain sight. Prosper because nobody believes it possible.



From Murray's own website:
"...[FONT=Garamond, Times, Serif][FONT=Georgia, serif][FONT=Georgia, serif][FONT=Garamond, Times, Serif][FONT=Georgia, serif][FONT=Garamond, Times, Serif][FONT=Georgia, serif]I will NEVER use Artificial Intelligence look alike to voice what
The Representative’s Office is doing nor own a robot look alike.

The World knows the truth, and We must always share the truth. "

Meanwhile, this guy looks like a robot:

I hope someone photoshops a few borg implants on that picture.

The internet has already heard your plea (well terminator, but close enough):

 

[Nithavela]

Ah internet, you so funny.

 

[Standing_Ultraviolet]

I know that the guy only got 5% of the votes, but how in the world did he manage to be a serious candidate for public office? He's legitimately delusional.

 

[Vylo]

I'm convinced voters are a combination of fed up and crazy that would allow virtually anyone to garner at least 2% of the vote, provided they are entertaining enough.

Well, 2% of the vote is probably going to go to any major party candidate just because some people are going to have no idea who the person actual is but are going to want to support their party. In retrospect, that's probably what happened here.

 

[Nithavela]

I'm sure that if you'd post a loaf of bread as incumbent, people would still vote for it.

I think maybe this is satire. Really. He's demonstrating two key points about the electorate.

1.) party loyalty will garner him at least one vote regardless of how weird he is.

2.) He acquired that vote because people aren't paying attention to those whom they elect, they trust, to represent them. Making the voters the Borg.

No, unfortunately, I've seen enough of this to think that he's probably being serious. It does sound like satire, but some pretty disturbing candidates compete in primaries.

 

[Nithavela]

What about the guy with the boot on the hat?

Um, they were all in the same party as this was the primary. I do think there is a contrarian/jokester factor going on to some extent.

I kind of missed out on that at the time, and I try not to go back and change my posts because I posted something factually wrong, because that looks like I'm just hiding the fact that I said it. Sorry

Anyone can run for public office. People will randomly pick candidates sometimes.
