Alaska Cat is elected as Mayor

 

When Mayor Stubbs is not busy with government work, he spends his free time laying under the sun watching the people.

A cat named Stubbs a.k.a. Mayor Stubbs as the locals call it, has been the mayor of a small Alaskan town for about 15 years.

When some the residents of Talkeetna got upset about the candidates that were running for mayor they have decided to put Stubbs as a candidate and encourage the others to vote for it.

It might have started as a joke but he actually won the elections.

Since then, he has held the title of honorary mayor.

Stubbs mostly hangs out at Nagley’s General Store, where thousands of tourists ask to see him every year, the report said.

“Oh my gosh, we probably have 30 to 40 people a day come in who are tourists wanting to see him,” said Lauri Stec, who works at Nagley’s.

I wonder if he would run for presidency…. who knows?
