When Craig Huckaby announced he would not seek re-election as mayor, Brooke decided to join the family business.
Sigh…
Youngest human. Several cats have been elected mayor in US history, and I doubt they were all over 21.
I’d be mildly amused by this story but it’s literally just nepotism
Yeah, it’s pretty bad. It’s literally “my dad, the former mayor, didn’t run so I ran in his place.” Personally, I would have a hard time voting for her, no matter how good her father was. Fuck political inheritance. That’s damn near antithetical to the ideal of (the American vision of) democracy.
She should build an ice skating rink
Generally a nice thing to have, but why specifically?
(I’m going to guess it’s a reference to something, but I’ve had no luck searching)
In Parks and Rec. there is the character Ben Wyatt (played by Adam Scott) who has a backstory of getting elected mayor at 18 and ruining his towns finances by building an ice skating rig called Ice Town.
Newspaper headline following his impeachment: Ice Town Costs Ice Clown His Town Crown
She was elected not appointed. No nepotism here just democracy.
