The majority of voters in the March 2nd Peace and Freedom Party Primary voted for Leonard Peltier and put him on the November ballot.
Leonard Peltier is not the first political prisoner to be run for president of the United States. During the First World War Eugene Debs, who was jailed for opposition to US entry into that war, ran from prison for the Socialist Party and got nearly a million votes.
