The truck driver who won Mississippi’s Democratic primary Tuesday with more than 146,000 votes admitted that he didn’t vote in the election because he “had to do a lot of stuff and just lost track of time.”

Robert Gray told Mississippi Public Broadcasting that he didn’t campaign much, and he didn’t report spending any money on his campaign.

“Actually, it wasn’t too much campaigning,” Gray told MPB. “It was a couple of events, but even though my opponents did a lot of hard campaigning they only reached a few people. You know, it was just people showing up, voting and, I guess random, voting.”

He also said the 146,163 people who voted for him had not idea who he was.
