Eric Hafner's campaign announcement from prison

... that Eric Hafner (campaign announcement pictured) ran for the 2024 United States House of Representatives election in Alaska while serving 20 years in federal prison in New York state?

Source: https://www.krbd.org/2024/09/03/eric-hafner-advances-to-the-ak-us-house-ballot-from-federal-prison/ "Campaigning for statewide elected office in Alaska can be difficult and expensive, but Hafner faces extra hurdles. For one thing, he’s never been to the state. For another, Hafner is currently serving a decades-long sentence in a medium-security federal prison near Otisville, New York."

He previously ran for U.S. House in Oregon as a Democrat and in Hawaii as a Republican. ... Carol Hafner also ran for Alaska’s U.S. House seat in 2018, and for Wyoming’s U.S. House seat in 2020."

Comment: The image isn't great as an image. But as a photocopy of a prison ID for a campaign announcement - it's priceless!
