For Immediate Release:

Even though Jeff wasn’t invited to the Debate, it’s clear that he won the evening. Over 50,000 people (obviously fed up with both candidates) casted votes for Jeff in the Vote For Emperor poll (right column this page) during and just after the debate. Jeff offered this assessment of the evening:

“Americans are clearly wanting real change. They shouldn’t have to suffer through bad television like this on a Friday night. With an emperor, America will no longer have elections or debates. I’m clearly the Tyranny candidate. And a vote for me is Tyranny You Can Believe In.”

For immediate release:

Citizens 4 Jeff announces that Senators McCain and Obama trail Jeff by a 10,000+ votes.  That lead has widened in the past 2 weeks as people still cannot vote for President yet are able to cast votes for Emperor. Campaign officials also point to the public’s growing anger against both parties over the mortgage loan crisis and the overall coolness of our campaign logo.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

Citizens for Jeff announced today their candidate for Emperor officially leads both McCain and Obama by 9,414 votes. Campaign organizers credit his lead to the fact that the polls haven’t officially opened and that Jeff is polling well in the disaffected sarcastic independent voter category that McCain and Obama have largely ignored. C4J spokesman Vida Blue said Monday, “If we can just get on the Daily Show with John Stewart before November, we’re going to win this election going away.”

Jeff did not comment on the lead, but did issue the following statement via his spokesman:

“We bribed a surprisingly few hundred of those 9,000 plus votes. It just goes to show that Americans want Tyranny instead of Change. I’m so happy.”

Citizens 4 Jeff will be releasing their first campaign ads later this week.
