William bryk


William Bryk (born March 12, 1955) is a lawyer and perennial candidate from Antrim, New Hampshire. Before Bryk left his former long-time residence in Brooklyn, New York, he took advantage of laws that requires only that candidates for U.S. Senator or U.S. Representative live in the state in which they are campaigning by the day of the general election. This allowed Bryk to run in the primaries without even visiting. Bryk generally ran in races that lacked a credible Democratic candidate. Bryk also worked as a contributor for the New York Sun and New York Press.

In March 2017, he was elected a Library Trustee in the Town of Antrim, polling 281 votes to 2 write-ins.
