Yikes…
The problem-riddled Dalton, Illinois Mayor Tiffany Heynard is running for re-election.
“Attention Attention Attention Attention,” Henyard wrote in a Facebook post. “I am running for Reelection for Mayor of Dolton.”
She was first elected mayor of Dolton, a south suburb of Chicago, in 2021 after serving two terms as trustee on the village’s board. She won the election in a landslide – receiving more than 80% of the vote.
Henyard, the self-described “supermayor” of Dolton, and Thornton Township Supervisor, has faced accusations of corruption and has drawn national attention to the small town. Dolton residents have called for Henyard’s resignation, including booing her at a Village Board meeting she attended.
The mayor, who insists “God chose me” and met with President Biden in January, has been said to engage in such wild antics it is like a “real life Parks and Rec situation.”
Henyard’s alleged misuse of taxpayer funds made national headlines after former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot previously investigated her for her extravagant spending habits.
Lightfoot’s investigation into the town’s financial situation revealed in a preliminary report that Dolton’s general fund balance was $5.61 million in 2022, but by May 2024 the balance had dropped to a deficit of $3.65 million.
Lightfoot also disclosed that Henyard used the village credit card to make purchases at Amazon, Target, Walgreens, Wayfair and other retailers. One jaw-dropping statement revealed that the embattled mayor had dropped $33,000 on Jan. 5, 2023, on Amazon.
Henyard also threw extravagant parties – all on the taxpayers’ dime. One party cost taxpayers approximately $85,000 to throw a party that featured R&B singer Keke Wyatt and rapper J. Holiday.
