Fulton County Elections Board Allows 'Super Mayor' Tiffany Henyard to Continue Candidacy Amid Controversy
The Fulton County elections board has voted to allow Tiffany Henyard, a self-described 'Super Mayor', to continue her candidacy for the district 5 commissioner seat. Henyard, who previously served as mayor of Dolton, Illinois, faced scrutiny over her residency qualifications. The board's decision came after a review of documents, including a lease agreement and voter registration card, which Henyard presented to prove her residency in Georgia since May 2025. Despite criticism from some residents regarding her past administration in Illinois, which was marred by investigations and lawsuits, Henyard defended her eligibility, citing Georgia's domicile laws. The decision allows her to remain on the ballot for the May 19, 2026, election.
