October 18, 2006 - Andy Griffith is running for sheriff in Grant  
County, Wisconsin.

William Fenrick legally changed his name to Andy Griffith in the  
hopes that name recognition would win the race for sheriff. A music  
store owner, Griffith said he hopes the name will draw attention --  
and votes.
"What I wanted to do was bring attention to his sheriff's race and  
the only way that I could think of to do it, or actually the best  
way, that I could think of doing it was changing my name to Andy  
Griffith," said Griffith, formerly known as William Fenrick. Griffith  
plans to keep the music store if he doesn't win the election.
