This self-proclaimed “super mayor” is now a super loser. Dolton “Dictator” Tiffany Henyard suffered a landslide loss in Tuesday’s Democratic primary after more than a year of seedy scandals, wild antics and haughty remarks finally caught up to her at the ballot box.

Dolton Mayor Tiffany Henyard will be losing some of her political power after a historic caucus Tuesday night. The Illinois “super mayor” lost the Democratic nomination for Thornton Township supervisor, a position Henyard currently holds.

All nominees are required to have eight people on their slate: supervisor, highway director, clerk, assessor, and four trustees. Instead, Illinois state Sen. and Thornton Township Democratic Committeeman Napoleon Harris overwhelmingly won the nomination. The caucus and its results enraged Henyard later that night. “You didn’t...
