This week I've completed a lot of the final aspects of my Final Product, but instead of talking more about that in this week's blog, I'd instead like to focus on Shona's reelection campaign. One thing that I do somewhat regret with my Final Product is that because I drilled down into local control so much, I didn't have the opportunity to go in depth with other parts of local government. That's not to say I haven't seen those different aspects through mentor visits and observational opportunities, but with actual products and synthesizing material, it's been mostly kept to local control. Campaigning is one side of being a representative that I definitely knew had to be a big part of the job, but didn't realize until watching Shona this year just how much of a focus it was. Shona's dedication to meeting new people and willingness to be out at the polls every day shows the commitment it takes to serve in a capacity like hers. It's such a unique part of the job because most other careers don't have an aspect where daily you have to interact with strangers to vie for their support. Moving forward it will be interesting to watch as the rest of the campaign unfolds and how that impacts the future of Frisco.
