Mayor Election News Flash

RABBIT HASH, KY -- An unexpected flurry of voting the past couple of days at the General Store in Rabbit Hash has resulted in the emergence of a brand new leader at the polls! And it is not one of the usual front runners...

Toby, the Springer Spaniel, also known affectionately as Tripod, has suddenly overpowered the other mayoral candidates to take the lead in the coveted political race. If his campaign is strong enough to sustain this lead for 5 more days, he could become Rabbit Hash's first three-legged mayor.

The feline and assinine camps are completely astonished by this sudden turn of events. The other canine troupes will not even comment yet. The midnight lamps will be burning all night long in dog houses along the Ohio River tonight, as campaign strategists try to make sense of this latest development.

Here are the current standings as of October 30, 2008, which includes every vote cast thus far, both at the Store and online:

1st	Toby	1,773 votes
2nd	Lucy Lou	1,629 votes
3rd	Higgins	1,278 votes
4th	Macy	1,050 votes
5th	Travis	804 votes
6th	Izzy	464 votes

11th	Cletus	21 votes
12th	Peggy Lee	6 votes
13th	Paulette	4 votes

Stayed tuned.
