Representative Gritty? Sheriff Gritty?

The Philadelphia Flyers’ big orange mascot has certainly made an impression on folks in Camden, NJ, where he collected 14 total write-in votes for a variety of positions in the recent election.

Among them, Gritty scored a pair of votes to be the Camden County Sheriff, two for the U.S. House in N.J. District 1, and 10 votes spread among five Board of Education seats — including five for Haddon Township alone. Camden is a southern New Jersey city that is just a few miles from Gritty’s Philadelphia stomping grounds.

The hairy, googly-eyed — monster? — is no stranger to politics in its short lifespan, having appeared in a Supreme Court segment on “Last Week Tonight,” as well as appearing on signs at protests against President Trump. According to an in-game graphic on the scoreboard Thursday night at the Wells Fargo Center, that may or may not be factual, Gritty received 46 write-in votes in elections around the country.

If Gritty has bigger aspirations of office, he’ll have his work cut out. Other Philly-area sports stars seeing their names on write-in ballots included Flyers forward Claude Giroux, Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz, Super Bowl-winning QB Nick Foles and late Phillies ace Roy Halladay.
