The wealthy Nashville suburb of Franklin roundly rejected what is likely the most controversial mayoral candidate in its history, deciding Gabrielle Hanson’s myriad of scandals—including several instances in which she cozied up to white supremacists—were too much to stomach.
The local real estate developer lost with just 20% of the vote, records showed, keeping the city of 85,000’s longtime incumbent, Ken Moore, in office another four years.
Tuesday’s result puts a cap on a chaotic campaign for Hanson, who seemingly found herself embroiled in new controversies weekly on the home stretch of her campaign.
