Nine people are running for Congress in Southeast Tennessee’s 3rd District, but only one is also a congressional candidate in a neighboring state.

It’s all part of Allan Levene’s urgent plan. He must be elected to Congress in 2016, he says. He’s the only one who can keep the U.S. economy from collapsing. By 2018, it will be too late.

So he qualified for the Republican primaries in the 3rd Congressional District in Tennessee, opposite incumbent Rep. Chuck Fleischmann of Chattanooga, and in Georgia’s 14th District, whose incumbent is Republican Tom Graves, of Ranger, Ga.

Levene doesn’t live in either district – he lives in Kennesaw, Ga. His district campaign headquarters consist of mailboxes at UPS stores in Rome, Ga., and on Signal Mountain Road.
