Comment: http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=%22John+Bell+%22+%22elizabeth+city%22&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&btnG=Search+Archives Here is the gnews (archives) search that gets 239 hits for him, which I thought seemed a  good number for a small town mayor,  some articles specifically on him, like the one I added.   says "mayors are likely to meet this criterion" of being  "Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage" and he seems to qualify with this amount of coverage
