Two's a crowd at beauty pageant

WINSLOW, Maine (AP) - One winner of a teenage Miss Fourth of July pageant is upset. The other agreed to share the title but isn't talking. And the pageant organizer is defending herself from accusations she rigged the results.

Molly Lybrook, 17, of Fairfield, said she won the Winslow Miss Fourth of July Pageant on Saturday. But organizers discovered votes had been miscounted and declared Caitlin Grenier, 14, of Winslow, the winner.

As a compromise, organizers said both teenagers would be crowned winners.

Lybrook believes organizer Leah Frost influenced the results. She said Grenier and Frost's sister are friends.

"This is somebody else's mistake," Lybrook said. "I won fair and square, and if it truly was a mistake, then I'm sorry, but that's something the person who made the mistake has to pay for, not me - the winner."
