Big sister beats little brother for mayor in Ohio village

MONTEZUMA, Ohio (AP) -- Score one for the big sister in the battle of two siblings running for village mayor.

Charlotte Garman, mayor of this western Ohio community for eight years, held off a challenge on Tuesday from her brother, Daniel Huffman, to keep her office.

She got 43 votes and her brother had 24.

Huffman, a carpenter and electrician, had admitted that his decision to challenge his sister for the seat probably didn't sit well with her.

But the two kept the sibling rivalry friendly and there was no bickering or name calling.

1. The defining moment in the campaign occurred when Charlotte tickled Daniel until he wet his pants.

Clearly, her strength appealed to the voters.

at her little bro and coyly replied,"girls rule, boys drool. Nee ner nee ner nee ner, danny's got a weener." A red faced Daniel vowed to seek revenge at the next election.
