Stephen Camara's hand is not faster than the eye as he is frantically trying to change his records of residency to remain eligible for the ballot in Fall River.

Fall River has become a city with two mayors, as Mayor Jasiel Correia refuses to step down and City Council President Cliff Ponte says he's acting mayor.
