An American talk show host’s campaign to become mayor of the Town of Dildo continues to gain momentum.

Jimmy Kimmel had his sidekick Guillermo on the ground in Dildo acting as campaign manager in his mayoral bid.

Appearing in a sou’wester with Dildo written across the front Guillermo gave the town a thumbs up. He enthusiastically said people are very friendly and professed his love for Dildo.

As for criticisms that Kimmel could not be mayor of Dildo as he is a US citizen, and also Dildo in fact has no mayor, the host offered his reasoning.

He said “I understand that I’m not Canadian, but I figure if we can have a dildo running America why can’t we have an American running Dildo?”

Yesterday Premier Dwight Ball extended an invitation to Kimmel to come tour the province. The host thanked him via twitter:

Thank you Premier Ball. My emissary @IAMGUILLERMO is on the ground in Newfoundland and the whole Kimmel family looks forward to seeing the Balls in #Dildo https://t.co/18GED8lV4C
