I just finished putting together a website for a family member who is running in an upcoming election for a local office. I used Artisteer to generate a very simple one-column, red, white and blue wordpress theme so voters can instantly get to know a candidate. I thought with November elections coming up, this might be a WordPress theme that others can use so I’m making it available here for free. If enough people are interested in the free version of this theme, then I’ll take the trouble and add more features like different page templates (with multiple columns), wordpress menu support and the like.
Please let me know what you think of this theme and if you have any suggestions or feedback:

*for $10, I can help place the candidates picture in your theme if you need help doing so. Just contact me for help.
Are widgets and a sidebar easy to install on this template or is it only a blog edit only page? I ask because I downloaded it but haven’t Activated it to test it yet. Thought I’d ask the Author first.
The layout of the page is simple enough to add text/comments but I’m not that great with WP so adding Plugins is something I wasn’t sure of with this design. Also are the Horizontal Menus “drop-down” compatible?
Thanks
Right now it is a blog edit only page but I could quickly add a sidebar to the theme if you would like. Give me a couple days to work on this and check back. Keep bugging me if I haven’t done it yet in a week.
