Dolton 'Dictator' Tiffany Henyard loses to Trustee Jason House in Dem primary

This self-proclaimed “super mayor” is now a super loser.

In Tuesday’s Democratic primary, Dolton’s Mayor Tiffany Henyard faced a substantial defeat after a series of scandalous incidents, controversial behavior, and arrogant comments. These factors ultimately led to her downfall at the polls.

The under-fire Illinois mayor finally ran into her kryptonite — voters in her own Chicago suburb that overwhelmingly picked village Trustee Jason House as the Democratic nominee.

With all precincts reporting, House notched nearly 88% of the vote while Henyard gained a measly 12%, according to Cook County election results.  

Earlier Tuesday, Henyard confidently claimed she would easily win, making clear, “I see no competition,” according to Fox 32.  

“Come be part of me making history once again,” she crowed on Facebook.

“I’m calling for my base, I’m calling for all the people that love the super mayor, who say you support me, I need you to show up and show out,” Henyard added, a request that apparently fell on deaf ears.

Leading up to the primary, the 40-year-old pol, who was first elected mayor in 2021, was dogged by an avalanche of damaging accusations and sordid headlines that led to constituent fury.

She faced accusations of overseeing off-the-rails spending with Dolton village government becoming the focus of an FBI probe last year.

The mayor recently jumped into a raucous brawl at a town board meeting in Thorntown where she serves as supervisor, though she lost the Democratic nomination for that position earlier this year.

She has consistently defended herself against the stinging criticism and accusations, calling it a smear campaign and blasting fake news.

“I want to heal my community after this,” the divisive character said online before later arguing there was voter suppression in the village because a polling place was moved.

Henyard’s entire slate of candidates also lost to candidates that ran with House, according to results.

Residents and business owners rejoiced Tuesday night, including Lawrence Gardner, 57, who had alleged Henyard targeted his now-shuttered trucking business because he did not contribute to her campaign coffers.

“The Wicked Witch of the West is dead! It’s over. Now we have to go another eight weeks to bury her,” he told The Post in a message.

Henyard’s mayoral term would be over in May if she can’t find a way to win in the general election.

“It was just like I was reborn,” he said of the results.

Another vocal critic, Valeria Stubbs, was happy to see voters ready to move on.

“She got the stuffing beat out of her!” she said in a brief interview.

“If I can do a backwards hand flip right now — and I’m 67-years-old next month — I would definitely do it,” Stubbs continued.

“I praise God. That’s all I have to say. Ding, dong the witch is gone!”
