Dead Man Wins City Election In California

Dead Man Wins City Election In California; Female Rival Calls Foul

Voters in Oceanside, Calif., have chosen a dead man over a woman, reelecting Gary Ernst as city treasurer despite the fact that Ernst died in September. A prominent city councilman had urged voters to elect Ernst rather than challenger Nadine Scott, promising to appoint a replacement for Ernst.
