Get your bumper sticker Bess. Finally you have someone to support. You might even want to become a Nevada resident so you can vote.

LAS VEGAS -- The eldest son of the Nevada rancher at the center of an armed standoff with federal agents in 2014 says he'll mount an independent campaign for Nevada governor as a states' rights fundamentalist.
Ryan Bundy said Thursday he doesn't think other candidates running to replace term-limited Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval would properly protect the state liberty.
The 45-year-old Mesquite resident says he intends to file candidacy papers next Wednesday in Las Vegas and embark on a statewide speaking tour.
Federal charges were dropped in January against Bundy, his father Cliven Bundy, and a brother in the gunpoint standoff that stopped a federal roundup of Bundy cattle. A judge cited prosecutorial misconduct.
Ryan Bundy says he's a strict constitutionalist who believes the federal government can only own land in states for limited and specified purposes.
After the Nevada standoff, Ryan Bundy and brother Ammon Bundy led an armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon in 2016.
