Following the successful “Steal a Base, Win a Free Taco” promotion offered by Taco Bell during the World Series this year, Yum Brands!, Inc. announced a similar marketing promotion for KFC involving the Presidential contest between John McCain and Barack Obama.

David C. Novak, CEO of Yum Brands!, Inc., parent company of both Taco Bell and KFC, described the promotion on Tuesday,

If Senator McCain manages to steal the Presidential Election on Nov. 4, 2008, we’ll be offering everyone in America one free bucket of KFC on President McCain’s Inauguration Day.”

Mr. Gregg R.

So, if Senator John McCain manages to steal the 2008 election, Americans can look forward to being able to afford at least one meal. It will be free!”
