DORSET, Minn. — Robert "Bobby" Tufts hasn't made it to preschool yet, but he's already been elected twice as mayor of a tiny tourist town in northern Minnesota.

Mayor Tufts' name was picked Sunday during annual Taste of Dorset festival to be mayor of Dorset for a second term. It has no formal city government and has a population of 22 to 28, depending on whether the minister and his family are in town.

At least the four-year-old has an excuse for acting like one.

We can’t be sure. Has anyone seen his birth certificate?

Anyone could vote as many times as they like — for $1 a vote — at any of the ballot boxes

Just like Chicago.

The kid’s on his way for a Guinness World Record of longest serving mayor.

Say what you will but he sure is one cute little bugger.

If you read the rest of the story, (probably inspired by BOTH of his parents) he, unlike many mayors of other cities, is actually DOING something good like fund raising for charities and trying to help improve his community. That certainly is a novel idea for other mayors to key on.

That is an unfair statement. It takes an awful lot of time an energy to ban sugary drinks, kowtow to union thugs, sext with 7-8 woman on a regular basis.

If he does nothing, he’ll be ahead of the leftists.
