Greenbelt, Maryland – In a shocking turn of events, the council of this federally-owned city has named a woman as its first-ever Mayor. Elizabeth Harrington, a 12-year resident of Greenbelt, was unanimously appointed to the position by her colleagues, despite not being a career politician. Harrington, a devoted mother of two, received an astonishing 80% of the vote in the recent September elections, solidifying her place as the community’s choice.
