In Las Vegas, Nevada Batman, Mr. Clean and Mr. Truth sound like a band of superheroes but they're actually 3 of least a dozen candidates with unusual nicknames hoping their nicknames will get them elected to government offices statewide.
In Texas, Carole Keeton Strayhorn sued the secretary of state to have the nickname "Grandma" on the ballot. It was denied. But Richard Friedman, was allowed to use his nickname, "Kinky." It didn’t matter because both lost to Gov. Rick Perry.
In Montgomery, Alabama Dr. Robert Bentley, a Republican candidate for governor, couldn’t use Doctor as his nickname on the ballot. So he officially changed his name to Dr. Robert Bentley as a marketing tool for his candidacy. It didn’t work, he still couldn’t use it.
In Little Rock, Arkansas election officials wouldn't allow a retired Army colonel running for a U.S. Senate seat to use "Conrad `Colonel' Reynolds." However they did allow monikers such as Porky, Bubba and Two.
The reason I looked all of this up is, I plan on running for political office and using my nickname. It’s a little more personal than Porky, Bubba or Two. A lot of people call me “Asshole.” Do you think I could use it? Do you think I could win?
