    The article states it pretty clearly: Braxton correctly applied to run for mayor and the previous mayor, who was never voted in and was hand picked by the mayor before him, never completed the necessary anything to run for mayor. Braxton won by default because he was the only nominee.

    Afterwords, the previous mayor and previous city council held a private vote, where they voted themselves in, and “claimed” the positions back. They then proceeded to steal all the town documents from the city hall and run everything from private residences. And they’re so ingrained, and have their people in every facet of local government, that they’ve been getting away with it unopposed.
