According to the Supreme Court, corporations have all the rights of individuals. Testing this principle, a PR firm is running for Congress.
SIEGEL: And your corporate candidate, Murray Hill Inc., hopes to run in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, D.C. Is that the district selected?
Mr. HENSAL: Yes, it’s Maryland Congressional District 8. We’re currently working on getting to become a registered voter, which we were just recently rejected. So we have to work on our response to that. But we need to be a registered voter to run in the Republican primary, which is the place we feel would be most hospitable to a corporate candidate. At least initially, but I guess down the road, you know, the logic of the decision again plays out, and the parties really won’t be so relevant. But for now, we think the Republican primary would be a place to be.
