Stanford Andress

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Stanford E. "Andy" Andress is the author of The Civil War: The Sound of Thunder (1996) ISBN 0-9656257-1-0 which he co-authored with his wife Irene M. Deasy.

In 2002 he ran as a write-in candidate for Colorado Congressional Delegation serving in the 108th United States Congress[1] with a slogan of "Andress for Congress: Honesty," placing in 6th with 109 votes.[2] Republican Bob Beauprez won in a close election over Democrat Mike Feeley by a margin of 101 votes after a recount.[3]

In 2004 he ran on the ballot in Colorado as an Independent for United States President[4] with his wife as his running mate. They received 804 votes, which while a small number compared to the more than a million both George W. Bush and John Kerry received, was still more than some of the party-affiliated candidates received in Colorado. The Socialist Workers Party, Socialist Equality Party, Socialist Party, as well as the combined two competing tickets of the Prohibition Party all received a smaller number of votes.[5](PDF)
