Don't Give up Hope (Off Topic)

This post is not about golf, but it was so funny, that I just had to share....

It seems that voters wanted to send a strong message in recent elections held in Pierre, South Dakota. The County Commissioner position was up for grabs and the incumbent, Merlin Feistner was running against Marie Steichen. The town is rather small and with a total vote count of less than 200 votes it was bound to be close. In the end Marie Steichen defeated Feistner 100 votes to 64 votes. The only catch is that Marie Steichen died two months prior to the elections. So to put it lightly....Feistner was beat by a dead woman. The County Board will now meet to find a replacement for the position.
