I also have a "northern" accent, don't attend church, have no kids or spouse to win over voters and work 6 days a week so I wouldn't have time to campaign unless I get rid of my source of income. It's tough to get elected if you don't have any ties to the community. That's why I specified a local with roots in the area.
