Prohibition Party Apostasy

Good news, teetotalers! A Prohibition Party schism has produced two presidential candidates on the temperance wagon.

After the historically poor return of 208 votes in 2000, party members gave the boot to five-time candidate Earl Dodge and nominated Gene Amondson.

Dodge refused to accept the ouster, and continues to run as the Prohibition candidate, although his text-only party Web site belies his popularity.
