More on the 18 year old phenom mayor-elect from Michigan: USA Today covers his race, noting that "Sessions, who turned 18 on Sept. 22, ran as a write-in candidate because he was too young to get on the ballot in the spring. The young politician used $700 from a summer job to fund his door-to-door campaign in Hillsdale, Mich., a town of about 9,000."

And the follow up from Hillsdale.net: Sessions wins by just two votes! The elections officials hand-reviewed the ballots to determine the intent of every voter, including people who may have not indicated properly through filling out the bubble who they wanted to be mayor. For example, "Among the variations of spellings, the board decided that one person who wrote in “18–year–old high school student,” did intend to vote for Sessions, but that a voter who wrote in “anybody else,” did not."
