One Day As Mayor

That must be some kind of record. AP (07.18.05):
"A federal jury Monday convicted San Diego's new acting mayor and a city councilman of taking payoffs from a strip club owner to help repeal a 'no-touching' law at nude clubs, the latest blow to a city awash in scandal. Michael Zucchet, who became interim mayor over the weekend, was found guilty of conspiracy, extortion and fraud on his first business day in office. He was immediately suspended from the position, his attorney said." San Diego's Acting Mayor, Councilman Convicted of Corruption"
Mayor Dick Murphy resigned and left office Friday, eight months into a second term cut short by mounting problems at City Hall."
