        Preventing an elected mayor from serving sounds like a violation of democracy. Their Spouses/Siblings must be very disappointed in them.

    The town is 85% Black, and 69% of Black people here live below the poverty line.

    What the actual fuck? This is like finding a primitive, isolated tribe. This shouldn’t be a thing in the 21st century.

      Though I’ll agree with you on the sentiment.
