UM-Bot Posted March 10, 2019 #1 Share Posted March 10, 2019 A 3-year-old Nubian goat by the name of Lincoln has been elected by the townspeople of Fair Haven. https://www.unexplained-mysteries.com/news/326174/goat-is-elected-mayor-of-town-in-vermont 1 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+susieice Posted March 10, 2019 #2 Share Posted March 10, 2019 Probably as good as any person they could elect. I can hear city council telling everyone that the goat told them to do it. 1 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+and-then Posted March 10, 2019 #6 Share Posted March 10, 2019 I was in Omaha, Nebraska once and the main topic amongst the candidates was which would do the best job repairing "chuck holes" I thought it was funny until I went off into one. I realized they called them that because some poor guy named Chuck must have disappeared into one, never to be seen again. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C L Palmer Posted May 7, 2019 #22 Share Posted May 7, 2019 I was going to say that for Vermont this isn't surprising since they keep electing Sanders. He has the IQ of a low-functioning goat, and probably knows even less about economics. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
