A 5 year old child named Bobby Tufts was mayor of a small town called Dorset in Minnesota. He had been running the town for two years but lost the election to 16 year old Eric Mueller.
Bobby was only three when he won the election. The town only has 28 people and is known for a having tourists and no official government. The mayor is chosen from names in a box at the Taste of Dorset Festival. They pay $1 for each vote.
Bobby mayor says the first time he was mayor he declared to be at the top of an ice-cream food pyramid and raise money for the Ronald Mcdonald House Charities. He enjoyed it but he now has to give the job to Eric.
