Bacon or Fries?

Some Colorado voters had the chance to vote with their stomachs instead of their heads or hearts.
A seat on the State Senate was won by Bob Bacon, vanquishing his greasy foe, Matt Fries.
The puns came fast and furious ("Bacon cooks up a victory," "sounds like a diner order" from the media.
It should be noted though that Fries is actually pronounced "freeze."
But you know the media, never let the facts get in the way of a good story.
