A '''perennial candidate''' is somebody who runs several times for political office, without ever winning. After repeated unsuccessful runs a perennial candidate often becomes the subject of [[joke]]s.

==Examples==
* [[Harold Stassen]] who ran 9 times for President between 1948 and 1992
* [[Lyndon LaRouche]] who ran 8 times for President between 1976 and 2004
