Please Don't Elect Me Mayor

Please Don't Elect Me Mayor

A Mack Hollister Comedy Novel

Frank Delaney has made a lot of questionable decisions in retirement.

Running for mayor was not supposed to be one of them.

After making one sarcastic comment at a town council meeting, Frank wakes up to discover that someone has launched a campaign on his behalf. There are homemade signs, enthusiastic volunteers, a suspiciously organized committee, and a growing number of neighbors who seem convinced that Frank Delaney is exactly what the town needs.

There is only one problem:

Frank absolutely does not want the job.

He has no platform, no campaign experience, and no idea how he got involved. But the harder he tries to explain that he is not running, the more people seem to support him.

Soon Frank is dealing with public meetings, local power players, campaign promises he never made, questionable advice from the O'Malley's crowd, and a town where every pothole, parking space, and zoning dispute can become a full-scale political crisis.

As the accidental campaign gains momentum, Frank begins to suspect something even more dangerous:

He might actually be good at this.

Please Don't Elect Me Mayor is a warm, laugh-out-loud comedy about retirement, small-town politics, marriage, friendship, unintended leadership, and what happens when one ordinary man becomes everybody else's great idea.

Perfect for readers who enjoy small-town humor, quirky characters, older protagonists, political comedy without the heavy politics, and feel-good stories with plenty of heart behind the laughs.

Written by Mack Hollister, author of The Worst Retirement Plan Ever, The HOA Has Lost Its Mind, Definitely Not a Bed & Breakfast, and We Accidentally Bought a Food Truck.
