Mazurkewich received just 604 votes in the 2012 election.

In March, he pleaded guilty to carrying a concealed imitation weapon for taking two air soft pellet guns into a bar.

He was fined $750 and had to forfeit the pistols.

Court was told Mazurkewich was on his way to a shooting range when a friend called and asked him to meet up at the bar.

He ended up showing the guns to another patron at the establishment, and police were called.
