Scal, allow me to offer a little more information that puts the make-believe mayor's loss in 2016 into even more context:

Here is the link to the Board of Elections voter registration totals for 2016: http://www.elections.ri.gov/publications/Election_Publications/Voter_Registration/10-09-16_RI_VR_TOTALS.pdf

Warwick is on page 8. There, you'll see that there were 20,124 registered Democratic voters, 7,705 Republicans, and 30,703 unaffiliated, so about 58,500. Of those, 40,501 voted in the mayor's race, as shown at this link from the Board of Elections: https://www.ri.gov/election/results/2016/general_election/warwick/

Mayor Avedisian took 26,281 votes, or 64.89% of those voters, while the make-believe mayor received 14,086, or 34.78%. More to the point, his vote total represents 24% of all major party and unaffiliated voters in Warwick.

And yet, as you correctly point out, the make-believe mayor has repeatedly claimed some type of victory -- and, more egregiously, claimed that he represents "80,000 taxpayers" -- after getting barely more than 1 out of 3 votes cast and fewer than 1 in 4 of major party and unaffiliated voters.

For all of his self-described campaigning -- which is a vague term that he has never specifically defined; he could be counting his numerous comments on this site as "campaigning" -- and all the money he spent, this result was, by any objective measure, a complete and utter failure.
