Town of Mooresville issued the following announcement on June 17.
The Mooresville Youth Council is pleased to announce the newly elected 2022 Dog Mayor is the Honorable Buttercup!
The outgoing Dog Mayor, the Honorable Daisy, was Mooresville’s first ever dog mayor and was elected last year after a third grade class at Rocky River Elementary who had been studying local government reached out to Mayor Atkins about the possibility of electing a dog mayor for the Town of Mooresville. Daisy did an amazing job, and we thank her for her service.
Again this year, the MYC held a contest on their Instagram page, where Buttercup was elected with over 4,000 votes. Congratulations, Buttercup, and we look forward to an exciting year!
