The election was open to everyone, but Duke the dog won the most votes from the town’s citizens.
This is Duke, the (honorary) mayor of Cormorant, Minn.
Last Thursday Duke won the election to be honorary mayor for the year for the small town of 12, resident Tammy Odegarrd told BuzzFeed.
"Pretty much everyone knows him," she said.
The election for honorary mayor, which cost $1 to vote in, lasted five weeks and helped raise money for a fundraiser.
Lucky for Duke, he'll be awarded a handsome salary of a year's supply of kibble, donated by a local pet store.
"He is an outside dog, loved by everyone in the town, and he is a regular at Cormorant Pub," she said of the furry 7-year-old politician.
