Middle Tennessean voters have soundly rejected a mayoral candidate who refused to to denounce the support of neo-Nazis in a poll that drew four times as many voters than in a similar ballot four years earlier.
Gabrielle Hanson’s bid to become mayor of Franklin, Tennessee, had been dominated in its final months by controversies. Those included an investigation in September that revealed she had posted a photo of a group of women she claimed to be supporters, though at least one later said she had no idea who the candidate was.
