NP Rank:
The Momma Mia Mayor
She looks like she can run Arlington by herself. Maybe a Mayor
that looks good in a bikini isn’t such a bad thing. Mayor Carmen
Kontur-Gronquist’s underwear might get mentioned as Arlington holds its annual town meeting on Wednesday.
(AP) Ore: The mayor’s lingerie is a hot topic here, with some residents upset that she posted pictures of herself wearing only a black bra and panties on her MySpace page. She was on one of the town’s fire engines.In an interview with the (Pendleton) East Oregonian, the mayor said she did nothing wrong and those who are offended need to get over it.
“That’s my personal life,” she said. “It has nothing to do with my mayor’s position.”
Kontur-Gronquist, who is also the fire department’s executive secretary, said the photos were taken before she was elected mayor three years ago, and she saw no reason to remove them from the Internet after taking office.
“I’m not going to change who I am,” she said. “There’s a lot of officials that have a personal life, and you have people in this community who have nothing better to do than scrape up stuff like this.”
