Alvin Greene Detours to Run for South Carolina State House

Planning to extend his 15 minutes of fame after winning a surprise victory in last year’s Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, colorful candidate Alvin Greene announced last year he would run for President.

Now, he’s taking a detour to run for a seat in the South Carolina state legislature.   In late December Greene became one of three Democrats running to fill the District 64 vacancy created by the death of state Rep. Cathy Harvin.

A primary for the state House race will be held Feb. 15 and the special election will take place on April 5. 

If you can’t wait that long, get your Alvin Greene fix by checking out the first issue of Greene’s “Ultimate Warrior” graphic novel.   Something tells me that, now that he’s figured out he can get people to pay attention to him by running for public office, from now on Alvin Greene will never pass up an opportunity to appear on the ballot.
