Arlington, Ore. (AP) -- The mayor of an Oregon town who once stripped to her underwear and posed on a fire truck has been stripped of her office.
Voters in this town of about 500 voted narrowly Monday to recall Carmen Kontur-Gronquist. The tally was 142-139. City officials said the recall is effective Tuesday.
Kontur-Gronquist said the pictures of her in black bra and panties were taken for use in a contest about fitness, but a relative posted them on MySpace in hopes it would improve the social life of the single mother.

I guess since SmithL accurately posted the title of the article (it's that way at the SFChronicle's website, too), it technically shouldn't be changed?

According to the article this was years before she ran for Mayor. I think its silly to fire her over a shot of her in her bra. Big deal.

Uh, OK. Not too shabby for 40, but maybe just a teensy bit trampy. Looks to be an outdoorsy type, and likely a windsurfer.

The article said that people were also taking issue with her on some matters involving water management and something about the local golf course. IMHO, you gotta respect that the town's residents actually voted her out.. if it was bad enough for them, fine- democracy in action!
