GOP candidate touts election win despite running unopposed

A local GOP candidate is bragging about her election victory this week despite running unopposed.

The New York Post reported that Tiffany Henyard won her GOP primary race for a commissioner's seat in Fulton County, Georgia. However, as the Post noted, she ran unopposed.

"Thank you, Fulton County! We did it," Henyard wrote on Facebook. "Support the movement."

According to the Post, she's known in Georgia as the "Dolton Dictator" because she moved from Dolton, Illinois, and left the Democratic Party before running. Henyard, however, refers to herself as a "super mayor," per the Post.

Citing election results, the Post pointed out that the 1,136 votes she received on Tuesday were "more than 2,000 fewer votes than the candidate who got dead-last in the Democratic primary."

Henyard's victory came at a time when some political experts have said Democrats are carrying significant momentum into the November midterm elections. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump's approval rating within the GOP continues to sink, reaching a record-low 80% as of Thursday, according to polls.
