Jaylen Smith was elected the mayor of Earle, Ark., on Tuesday night, becoming the youngest Black mayor in the United States.

Smith, 18, defeated Nemi Matthews Sr. in a runoff election.

Smith had 218 votes, compared to Matthews’ 139, according to election results.

Smith announced his win in a Facebook post, saying ““It’s Time To Build A Better Chapter of Earle, Arkansas.”

Matthews is the superintendent of Earle with more than four decades of experience working in the small Arkansas town, which has a population of under 2,000 people and is situated about 30 miles northwest of Memphis.

This is a country where dreams are put into realities .kudos to this future leader. Kudos to the electorates and kudos to America.

This is exactly what not only nigeria but the whole of africa needs right now...

Young minds with fresh ideas not all these tobacco filled teeths and beer drunken brains

This is a country where dreams are put into realities .kudos to this future leader. Kudos to the electorates and kudos to America.

Congratulations, this is what we look forward to in Nigeria. Not ancestors that won't let youths lead the nation aright.

And meanwhile we have a 42 year old tableshaker Nigerian

This is what we need more of! Diversity and young people leading our generation. Not people in there 60’s and 70’s who don’t give a damn about the future because they won’t be here.

Things like these happen in countries where things are working, congrats to him. Btw, if you want to celebrate him yourself, you can always hangout with the Oraimo boom speaker and enjoy very good music.
