Schizophrenia, Chat GTP and voice to text apparently do not mix.

Didn’t help she was also deaf (and still is deaf in death….)

It appears the candidate died on May 23.

Edit: also, her daughter (and fellow candidate) has/had a Reddit account promoting her 2024 run for President. Most of the posts were removed by Reddit but the images of her car are still there from when she shared them in r/SchizophreniaRides. It's something, all right. https://www.reddit.com/u/RACHELHANNASWIFT/s/inPRkVDBDz

Her chances of winning probably just went up.

Exponentially! 🤣

Did I misread or did she have like 14 children?

u/wolfayal Wicomico County 23h ago

Looks like her daughter would have been her lieutenant governor. Is that actually legal?

u/OrganizationActive63 21h ago

BUT - It would have been the Taylor-Swift ticket!!!!!

u/SnapCrackleMom 23h ago

Why would it be illegal?

u/wolfayal Wicomico County 20h ago

Feels like a major conflict of interest for a family member to be a lieutenant governor.

u/InstructionBudget784 21h ago

There's nothing in the constitution that says the running mate can't be a relative.

u/wolfayal Wicomico County 20h ago

Interesting! Would think there’d be concern about conflict of interest.

Holy shit 12 kids (one of whom predeceased her), born deaf, AND survivor of spousal abuse?

u/jdub965 23h ago

Not sure this is the same person

24

u/Bree-LandFC 23h ago

It is the same person. It mentions she was running for governor towards the end of the obituary.

14

u/SnapCrackleMom 23h ago

From the obit:

At the time of her passing, Nancy was a candidate in the Republican primary for Governor of Maryland, alongside her daughter Rachel as her running mate for Lieutenant Governor.

12

u/lacole725 23h ago

It is. Towards the bottom it says she was a candidate with her daughter as running mate. Even asked for votes 😂

7

u/NoahStewie1 Anne Arundel County 23h ago

I'm pretty sure they're the same person. The obituary says that Jane Taylor has a daughter named Rachel Swift, who happens to be her running mate

32

u/jdub965 23h ago

Ok. I had to look. Apparently republican gov candidate. Making us proud! What a flipping disgrace

u/gkaplan59 23h ago

Is this real?!

u/suture224 22h ago

So this is a good example of "Anyone can run for office in any party". Please keep in mind that your legislators are people, sometimes weird, deeply unintelligent people. Their only barrier to entry is getting votes. It is people like Mohawk Swift that make me glad we have primaries.

Kudos to the LWV for printing her words as submitted.

If you need another example of this, please peruse Delegate Frank Conaway’s literary offerings on Amazon.

u/jinbe-san 23h ago

Taylor/Swift…. I was wondering if it was a troll response or candidate when i read it. It’s unhinged

She at least acknowledges putting kids in cages us a disgrace

That's amazing in every sense of the word.

u/ALoudMeow 7h ago

I was so disappointed finding only that one deranged answer. Usually the GOP has several candidates off their meds.

u/TheAzureMage Anne Arundel County 4h ago

Seems like an amazing pitch to me. Vote for the Mohawk, we definitely won't regret it.
