Elvis impersonator wins a council seat in Spain

Ariel Santamaria proposed that marihuana be planted in the local parks

An Elvis impersonator has been elected as councillor in the local elections in the town of Reus near Barcelona for the independent CORI party.
Ariel Santamaría, a former postman, based his election campaign around a series of concerts across the town, but his manifesto is of particular note...
He also said the Town Hall should be painted pink, and the town square be converted into a swimming pool for nudists.
Sñr Santamaría also believes in new technology with a web page, and his press secretary has been attending to the press demands dressed as a pirate, eye patch included.
He obtained more than 1,800 votes to be elected as councillor.
