Twitter can’t handle a Clay Aiken political bid

The Congressional primary race between Democrats Keith Crisco and Clay Aiken went down to the final votes last night. Aiken finished the night 400 votes ahead, but the margin is too close for anybody to declare a flat-out winner. Whoever does win will face Renee Ellmers in our district.

That said, the race made national headlines because of Aiken’s celebrity status. And many on Twitter seemed like they were just learning of Aiken’s Congressional bid. And many didn’t realize last night was simply a primary. And many are idiots. Some are funny, too.

Enjoy.

No, Clay Aiken; people cannot continue to vote for you by calling 1-866-IDOLS 01. You have to wait for them to finish counting ballots.

We complain out our current politicians but chastise those who may truly make a difference. This remark is intended for all new wannabes, not just Clay Aiken! Make up your mind what you want, same old crooks or new blood, and give all a chance!
