Eric Jon Schmidt is hoping to win a spot on the West Hollywood City Council, and he promised an “absolutely transparent campaign” to get the position.
He's not promising to release his taxes. He's not revealing any mistresses. Instead, the openly gay man shared a link to his DudesNude profile
Need2BNude.
On the site he describes himself as a "sexhibitionist” and explains that "I think the human body [is] a beautiful work of art and I have no 'hang-ups' about showing mine even though it is average."
“I am 100% transparent,"
he said in an interview. "I have nothing but good intentions and I am not running against anyone, just their seats.
“I have nothing negative to say about the others and never will. I do not think it will hurt my campaign any more than it would a candidate’s stamp collecting hobby."
He added: “I am not a nudist. I don’t do everything nude. I am an exhibitionist. Actually, I’m kind of shy. [...] I’m also a sexhibitionist which means I like to be watched having sex."
For his run for office, he plans on funding the whole venture on his own and will not be taking campaign contributions. He promised that if elected he would be focusing on issues affecting low income earners and disabled seniors.
He is the fourth candidate to step into the ring, even though the election will not be held until March 5, 2019. Obviously the earlier he starts to run, the more time voters have to check out his dick pics!
