Getting elected as Govenor of New York?

Question

Do you think I could get elected if I ran on the campaign promise of changing the name of the "Finger Lakes" to "The Finger Lickin Good Lakes" in an effort to get KFC to relocate their corporate offices?

Would you vote for me?

Answer 1

Why not?

There is a town in New Mexico called Truth-or-Consequences. Does it sound familiar? That's right. It was named after the TV quiz show. The producers of the show offered to move the show to the town that changed its name to T or C.

Also, Jim Thorpe, PA is named after the great athlete who left it in his will that he should be buried in the city that named itself after him.
