Dead Mayor Elect
Tuesday 7th April 2009 saw Missouri Town, a small town in Winfield have relected there current Mayor.
Harry Stonebraker won the election by sealing 206 votes which was 90 percent of papers. Unfortunately Stonebraker died 69 on 11th March 2009.
The ballots had already been created and some had been completed when the election process was going through. The Mayor was announced as the late Harry Stonebraker.
The question is what will happen. The last time this happened it was US senate race for Missouri in 2000 when Democrat Mel Carnahan died in a plane crash just weeks before winning the election in November. The wife of the late Carnahan was appointed until she lost a special election in 2002.
The lesson that must be learnt from this is that we should never either get on a plane or suffer from heart problems when ruinning for Mayor or Office.
To be honest who would want to run for Office in America anyway.
