【Tayuan】

Bill de Blasio may have Tayuaneasily won his second term as New York City's mayor last month with more than 66 percent of the vote, but his run wasn't entirely uncontested.

The official write-in results are in, thanks to the NYC Board of Elections, and there were quite a few public figures who came within just, you know, a few hundred thousand votes of becoming the Big Apple's new mayor.

What follows is a nice, encouraging list of actual write-in totals for different public figures that we hope serves as a reminder to get out and vote. Because, you never know: we could make a dumb TV personality the president or something.
