Researchers at the Franklin Center for Government & Public Integrity found 440 “phantom [Congressional] districts” listed on Recovery.gov, the U.S. government’s official website for data related to Recovery Act spending.
Glenn Reynolds is considering running for office in Tennessee’s 29th [phantom] Congressional District and has already pickedup financial support. Maybe I should announce my candidacy for Virginia’s 79th [phantom] Congressional District – I could use some quatloos as well.
[Update & bump to top] Glenn Reynolds (Instapundit) is testing the waters for his run for Tenessee’s phantom 29th Congressional District. Go encourage him – better a real congresscritter for a fake district than a fake congresscritter from a real district (and we have plenty of them).
