Perennial candidate
open-in-new
<p>A perennial candidate is a <a href="/facts/Political_candidate/wapc3kU4">political candidate</a> who frequently runs for elected office and rarely, if ever, wins. Perennial candidates are most common where there is no limit on the number of times that a person can run for office and little cost to register as a candidate. </p>
