19-year-old becomes youngest mayor in Maryland history

At 19-years-old, Brandon Paulin officially became the youngest mayor in state history when he was sworn in as mayor in Indian Head, Maryland

“I just decided to step up because I think I can implement some solutions to Indian Head’s problems,” Paulin said.

Paulin won a special May 5 election for mayor, beating out the closest candidate by 54 votes.

Age won’t prevent Paulin from taking action however. Her nearly stopped his interview with WUSA to help a resident get gas. After that, the two talked about what she would like to see in the town.

He’s too young to legally drink alcohol, but is making Maryland history.
