I guess they'll just print verbatim whatever candidate statement is sent in no matter how crackpot. This is from the official state voter information guide btw. This is the only statement with the disclaimer at the top. Nice of them to post their phone number and email tho
I think the odds of this guy winning anything other than a prison sentence are very low.
Pride? In my Sodomy? It's more likely than you think
The best thing about being a registered voter in California was definitely the unhinged candidate statements.
There's always some bangers in there.
In the US, the mentally ill are either locked inside some asylum and subjected to horrific abuse, thrown onto the streets to fend for themselves, or allowed to decorate their car with 500 bumper stickers of fetuses and bible quotes and share a bunch of mid-2000s styled conspiracy websites that worsens their psyche
He's definitely going downhill. Here's his candidate statement from 2018: (CW: transphobia) https://ebcitizencom.files.wordpress.com/2018/05/f0c0d-grundmann2bballot2bstmt.jpg
back in my day the Time Cube style crank was the norm instead of the exception
(Instantly recognizes writing style)
Oh, he's back again, and now focused on LGBT people
I wonder what he looks like. With no photo submitted he could look like anything. He could be an old white guy with thinning hair or a handsome young latino with a ponytail. There's just no way to tell!
I looked him up. You were right with your first guess.
ShowLiterally a doppelganger for holy shit
His website is the most concentrated you will ever see. I'm not going to link it because there's an actual picture from the 30s or 40s of several black men being lynched (which he uses to attack Planned Parenthood). Dude is extremely unhinged.
Who could have guessed? It was honestly 50-50 between this and the latino with the ponytail.
I was going to go with middle aged Korean lady but that was a close second.
This guy looks like a Peter Davidson era Doctor Who villain

You can find him/this photo here under state senate elections
I want to know more about iamadomesticterrorist.org but I don't want to visit iamadomesticterrorist.org.
someone who knows how to do that safely do that and tell us please
the only archive.org capture of the site is just a domain parking page
What does the anal flag look like and why does this guy want to display it in schools?
Don Grundmann, a chiropractor [emphasis mine] from the Bay Area[...] “You pulled the race card to pull in attacks against us, to justify attacks against us in that park, and when they come you're going to turn right around and say we deserved it. We haven't done anything, we’re a totally peaceful racist group" [source]
Also how is it "turning right around" to justify attacks against someone and then say they deserved those attacks? That's completely consistent.
I keep misreading that as "Deep Fry Pastry Sirhan" and I'm losing my mind
I remember those voter guides. They weren’t stupid enough to print candidate statements back then.
This is actually super helpful. Where I live you have to fucking search Facebook posts of candidates to find the crazies. And a lot of them have figured that out and hide their shit. Other than stalking them at meetings we have no news that publishes anything useful about most of them if they aren’t already in office (if at all).
