Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska Reacts to Levi Johnston’s Bid

The Mayor of Wasilla, Alaska is responding to Levi Johnston's announcement that he is going to run for his seat, which will be vacant in 2012.

Mayor Verne E. Rupright tells ET, "Well, it is a little early to declare. Usually most wait until the year the seat is up. But since I am nearly old enough to be Levi's grandfather I think it would be wise for him to get a high school diploma and keep his clothes on. The voters like that!"

Levi, who famously fathered former Republican vice presidential candidate (and former Wasilla mayor) Sarah Palin's grandson, is set to run in the race to be held on October 4, 2011.
