ABOUT THE SHOW:
Ned Newley doesn't even want to be governor. He's terrified of public speaking; his poll numbers are impressively bad. To his ever-supportive Chief of Staff, Ned seems destined to fail. But political consultant Arthur Vance sees things differently: Ned might be the worst candidate to ever run for office. Unless the public is looking for... the worst candidate to ever run for office. “A laugh-out-loud whimsical farce, as if Oscar Wilde has come back from the dead to write an episode of The West Wing." - DCist
