Missouri Town Will Be Run By Dead Mayor
There's one thing Missourians love more than competitive eating, and that's voting for dead people. Remember that one time, in 2000, when they elected that dead governor rather than see that rascal Senator John Ashcroft stay in power? Thank goodness, because otherwise Ashcroft really could have done some damage, to Democracy!
Anyhow, Missourians have again voted for some dead person, a mayor of a little town of less than 800 people, and if they want to be ruled by a corpse then FINE.
It is better than voting for a goat.
