Former Dolton, Illinois, Mayor Tiffany Henyard, also known as “America’s worst mayor,” is giving public office another go, switching parties and states to run as a Republican in Georgia.

Henyard filed to run for the Fulton County, Georgia, Board of Commissioners and qualified for the May 19 primary election on March 5. Her political comeback comes after she lost her bid for reelection as Thornton Township supervisor in Illinois at the end of 2024 and lost her 2025 Dolton mayoral reelection campaign to primary challenger Jason House by a 70% margin.
