According to this article, the town of Tar Heel, North Carolina, will elect its Mayor and three town commissioners entirely by write-in vote this year. The filing deadline has passed, and no one filed to be on the ballot for any of the offices. This type of election is fairly common in Pennsylvania and Indiana, but it is rare in North Carolina.

Wow, interesting. So if enough people vote for, say, Obama (writing his name in), then would he be elected to be its Mayor?
