   "He doesn't "say" he was elected. He was elected. Prior to his election the mayors just appointed their successors and never ran elections. He found this out, got an election ran, won, and now the city council refuses to swear him in."

     @Miriamm This is atrocious. I guess they are hiding behind the "says he was elected" because the previous mayor claims he executed a coup reelection to hold on to power, but that excuses nothing in the headline.
     In the alleged play of events held by the old town council, our unnamed hero is an ex-mayor at least.

     Crappy work. I wonder if they are letting AIs write headlines these days?
