From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Phillip Blancher ran in the 1995 Ontario general election as an independent candidate while attending high school at age 18 in the riding of Leeds-Grenville. To this date, he is the youngest person in Ontario history to run for provincial office. He received 438 votes, and briefly ran in the 1997 Federal Election, securing the party nomination for the Canadian Action Party. Resigning from the nomination in a dispute with riding association funding, Mr. Blancher continued as a freelance journalist and a web developer.
