They've lied. They've cheated. They've stole. And God bless 'em for doing so. Hot Potatoes is the first in the nation to report the winners -- of the Fightin' Creek mayor's race. And I'm not using exit polls. Steve Young (the ex-49ers QB?) won the one-year term in a landslide with 1,421 votes. Denny Stewart was elected vice mayor with 389 votes and Cheryl Schoener, secretary/treasurer with 315 votes. Other top vote-getters were Nick LePire, 175; Steve Sherich, 133; Kate Harold, 70; and Gary Harold, 41. About 3,000 cast votes. The new mayor's prime responsibility? Keep the two-hole outhouse behind the Fightin' Creek Tavern (which doubles as the Fightin' Creek Chamber of Commerce) stocked with toilet paper for the next year.
