      I would ask a lawyer first but I wouldn’t be worried about breaking the law.

      However, you don’t start with a candidate. You have to convince 50% or better 90% of the population first. Then, the election is a formality.

      I rather doubt that a majority wants Anarchy, even if you could start with a perfect setup.

        A lawyer is gonna tell you you’re on your fucking own on this one, though will probably offer to represent you when you’re inevitably dunked into legal troubles.

        I’m a lot more optimistic about Anarchism’s appeal. George Orwell called anarchist Catalonia the closest thing he had ever seen to paradise. There are a lot of examples of Anarchist societies being highly successful (until the authoritarians show up and imprison/kill everyone).
