Support builds for Beyer

Support is mounting for Georgina Beyer to run for the mayoralty in Masterton.

Ms Beyer, the world's first transsexual MP and mayor, told the Times-Age she is considering standing for the post based on the level of public support. If successful, she would be the first Maori mayor the town has had.
The possibility was outlined in a Times-Age story on Saturday about Ms Beyer's new job in sales at Michael Hill Jeweller in the town. Since then a slew of emails have been fielded at the Times-Age about Ms Beyer and her possible candidacy, with only one voter questioning whether Masterton needs ''a second-hand mayor and recycled MP''.
