| - James Eugene "Jim" Carrey (born January 17, 1962) is an American Democratic politician who was the Democratic nominee for President in the 2012 Presidential election and was the Governor of Huron from 1999-2003, prohibited from succeeding himself by the Huron State Constitution. Elected as Mayor of Newmarket in 1987 at the age of 25, Carrey was the youngest mayor in the United States during his single term as Mayor. He served in the Huron State Senate from 1991 to 1998, resigning upon his election to the Governorship. His victory in the 2012 Democratic primaries made him the first Democratic candidate from Huron, and marked the first time two men from the same state but different political parties have contested the Presidency in consecutive elections, as his successor as Governor, Patrick Mead, was the Nationalist candidate in 2008. On November 6, 2012, he gained 225 electoral votes, 80 votes short of the required 305 to win the Presidency.
