A deceased politician beat a living opponent in the US election.
Bruce Giudici, who died on August 31, is leading the Calabar County Council election in California. The late candidate has nearly 57 percent of the vote, while his opponent Clyde Clapp has about 43 percent, according to KCRA.
Giudici died after falling during a door-to-door campaign. Despite the tragedy, his campaign urged supporters to continue voting for him. If the politician wins, a person appointed by the governor of California will take his place.
