Terran Woolley, the dog’s owner, used the state’s oversight to file the paperwork that would allow his 3-year-old wire-haired Visla named Angus P. Woolley to run for the election but Kansas election officials barred it on Tuesday.
“I thought, ‘Hey, why not Angus? He’s a good dog, he’s smart and I think he could provide better leadership than what we’ve had the last seven years in our state,” Woolley said.
Angus’ proposed bid never left the ground.
Bryan Caskey, director of elections for the Kansas secretary of state’s office, told The Kansas City Star that “there are several laws that reference that the governor has to be an individual or a person, and so we are relying on that, and if a dog comes in to file for office, we will not allow that.”
Caskey that he does not “know what would happen if a dog tried to” run. “I can’t point you to a law that says anything about the qualifications to run for governor.”
“Under Kansas law, there is no law governing the qualifications for governor, not one,” Caskey also said.
“So there’s seriously nothing on the books that lays out anything, no age, no residency, no experience; nothing.”
The dog’s attempted bid for the office followed the news that at least six teenagers are also running to become the next governor.
