This newly sworn-in Vermont mayor is the GOAT.

Lincoln, a 3-year-old goat, was elected last week as Fair Haven, Vermont’s, pet mayor with 13 votes, according to The Rutland Herald.

Following her swearing-in ceremony Tuesday, the Nubian goat’s first act in office raised some eyebrows.

Lincoln couldn’t wait for a bathroom and defecated on the ground, the Burlington Free Press reported.

The police chief was reportedly quick to grab a broom and dust pan to clean up the mess before her approval rating could go down with constituents.

The goat narrowly beat out a dog named Sammie Viger, a Boston Terrier, who came in second with an impressive 11 votes.

A total of 53 ballots were cast and 16 animals were submitted for consideration for the highly coveted position.

Other candidates included a cat named Sassy Towle, a dog named Stella Heibler and a gerbil named Crystal.

When not serving as mayor, Lincoln spends time at her day job: groundskeeper at her owner’s home with her best friend Lucy, a fellow Nubian goat, handling the brush in the backyard.

The pet election was set up by Town Manager Joe Gunter, who told The Rutland Herald that he got the idea while reading a newspaper article about a small town in Michigan doing the same thing.

Fair Haven does not have a mayor, but Gunter viewed the exercise as a productive way to raise money for a new playground and teach kids about getting involved in local politics.

Candidates were recruited by sending flyers home with elementary school children, according to VT Digger, and $5 donations were requested to register an animal.

While the donations only totaled about $100, a far cry from the $80,000 needed for new equipment to update the playground, the town plans to continue to try and raise money through a GoFundMe page and by applying for state grants, local station WCAX reported.

Lincoln will serve for a one-year term, with responsibilities including making public appearances and marching in the Memorial Day parade in a custom-made sash.
