Description |
In response to the election of two town council members suspected to maintain associations with neo-Nazi Craig Cobb, officials in Leith, North Dakota, are moving forward with plans to dissolve the town government.
Leith Mayor Ryan Schock collected enough signatures for a petition for dissolution — 12 in total in a town that counts only several dozen as permanent residents. On Wednesday, Schock brought the petition to the Grant County Commission, which set a July 23 special election for the town to make a final decision, The Bismark Tribune reported.
"Hopefully, it will go away. Nobody can take over the city government without a government,” Schock told the newspaper. |
