The Don Q Candidate
WASHINGTON HEIGHTS, NY – Leo Machuchal’s campaign was going great. He was all set to become the next State Assemblyman from Washington Heights. And then the accusations began.
“He’s a bootlegger!” screamed his opponent Adriano Espaillat. “He’s buying votes with his rum!”
As proof, Espaillat whipped a label out of his pocket, with Leo’s photo on it:
This all came as a shock to Leo, who denies any association with Don Q, and has not had a drink in 16 years.
“Somebody’s doing something slick downtown,” said Leo, as his bus continued to campaign through the streets of Washington Heights.
“We must be winning, or else they wouldn’t be lying.”
