America’s first female mayor was elected 130 years ago when 27-year-old Susanna Madora Salter became the first woman in U. S. history to win election and serve one term as mayor in Argonia, Kansas, in 1887. While many women have since served as municipal mayors, that reality has eluded the city of Lakeway. Voters in the city of Lakeway selected their first mayor in 1974. This coming May 5 election, citizens of Lakeway will see history play out based on the single fact that all the mayoral candidates are women. Sandy Cox, Jean Hennagin and Tiffany McMillan are the candidates running for Lakeway Mayor. Lakeway Mayor Joe Bain is not running again after being elected in 2015. Each candidate in the 2018 race acknowledged the importance of having women represented in government, but they agreed that fact shouldn't be the main focus of their campaigns.
