Mayor of Gary, Indiana
He was Gary's first white mayor since the election of Richard Hatcher in 1967. A member of the Democratic Party for most of his time in office, King left the party to become an independent in 2005, shortly before his resignation. He was briefly succeeded by then-deputy mayor and former Calumet Township trustee Dozier T. Allen as acting mayor, and subsequently by Rudy Clay.[2][3]
Notes
gollark: That should be fine too.
gollark: It might be able to run on less than a megabyte, I haven't tested it.
gollark: (before you complain, GHC allocates something like a tibibyte at startup)
gollark: CC doesn't limit RAM, but probably a few terabytes is enough.
gollark: They don't actually emulate them very in-depthly, or at all beyond a maybe limited-size filesystem mounted at `/disk` or `/diskX`.
