A Texas man has legally changed his name to Literally Anybody Else and announced he is running for US president in the 2024 election.
Formerly known as Dustin Ebey, the 35-year-old is a US army veteran and seventh-grade math teacher in the suburbs of Dallas, and now has a Texas driver’s license to prove his name change.
He said he wanted to change his name because he was unsatisfied with this year’s presidential candidates, Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
“Three hundred million people can do better,” he said in reference to the two frontrunners for the nation’s highest office. “There really should be some outlet for people like me who are just so fed up with this constant power grab between the two parties that just has no benefit to the common person.
This is why everyone leaves personally identifying information on the ballot and when you vote they take your vote, look over it, and put it in a box assigned to your name.
It takes a few days for all votes to appear on the public vote registry where everyone can see who you voted for, and sometimes the president will call you to thank you for your vote.

your votes are anonymous but your ballot packet is not. if you drop your ballot packet on the floor on the way to the ballot box, it can be traced to you simply by going to the voter registry where your ballot was issued or any other identifying info on the ballot envelope. however, once contents are opened and the ballot is separated from the packet, it is anonymous and your casted vote is anonymous and can’t be traced to you. but election workers can open it and put it aside if they open it and a bunch of confetti falls out or noticed that it’s not signed or whatever.
