Write-In Presidential Candidate In 3 States Is Raising Eyebrows

Independent presidential candidate Deez Nuts is pulling some impressive numbers at the polls.

A recent study by Public Policy Polling (PPP) showed the candidate polling at 9 percent in North Carolina, 8 percent in Minnesota and 7 percent in Iowa.

The Daily Beast has found who the real person is behind the name and it turns out to be a 15-year-old boy from Iowa who used the assumed name. According to the post by Ben Collins and Emily Shire, Brady Olson filed the proper Federal Election Commission forms on July 26th and emailed Public Policy Polling a filing statement.

While there have been many such filings under assumed names, Olson's has actually received a significant response.
