The nominee comes from Ethan Sonneborn , a 14-year-old from Bristol, Vermont. I am a young man who is a high school first grader from September.

In the United States, in all 51 states, 'the right to be a citizen of the United States', 'to be 18 years of age or older' and 'to be a resident of the state' are defined as common conditions for 'right to vote' in the United States. Requirements are set.

On the other hand, the requirements for the “right to be elected” of the state governors are different in each state, and the age requirement is “30 or older” in 34 states, “25 or older” “18 or older” in 6 states, “31 or older” There is no age requirement in Vermont, Kansas, and Massachusetts in one state. The requirement for residence is that 'I have been living in Vermont for more than 4 years by the day before the election,' Soneborn, who has been living in Bristol for 14 years, has cleared it. We gathered signatures to be candidates for the first vote, and they were safely joined as one of the candidates.

Soneborn's staff are from his age friends Miles Burgess and Alex Goat. It seems that three people are working on the content of the speech.

According to the Washington Post, Soneborn's appearance is not something that will affect many. Meanwhile, the same Vermont state 16-year-old Finnian Boardman Abbey has become a Democratic Senate candidate, and six young teenagers in Kansas elect a state governor, and youth participation in politics It is taken up that it stands out.

Postscript
As a result of the vote, it is said that Soneborn had a vote of 8.2%.
