Mr. Spooky's Paws Unable To Shatter Glass Ceiling Of Attleboro Politics
People say they want change in their politicians, but Mr. Spooky was a step too far. Last week, the federally-minded feline sauntered into Attleboro City Hall with the hope of shaking things up like a bag of treats, but he was denied. Despite having the anti-dog lobby in his pocket, Mr. Spooky's dreams were dashed. City law requires mayoral candidates to be 18, registered to vote, and a human. The halls of City Hall looked fur-midable 🐱 today when Mr. Spooky came by to pull papers to run for Mayor! Unfortunately... Posted by City of Attleboro on Friday, January 6, 2023 Still, Mr. Spo…

The Votes Are In, Harrisburg Wants New Mayor
The primary results have been counted and the current Mayor of Harrisburg has lost the primary. Mayor Eric Papenfuse was elected in 2014 and was running for a third term. Although he has said he had more work to do and more items on his agenda, in March at a 'Meet The Candidates' for he made it clear he had no intention of being a mayor for life. This is a very different tone than most candidates running for office and very different than the city's former mayors, such as the recently deceased Stephen Reed who served for 28 years and always asserted he wanted to be mayor for life.
