While US elections are serious business, people can get way too angry over them. Sometimes political opinions can cause rifts in workplaces, families, and neighborhoods, when they really shouldn't. In those times, it only takes one person to raise everyone's spirits by seeing the funny side of campaigning. In Arvada, Colorado, one neighbor led to two who are running their dogs as candidates! Although what office they are running for is suspiciously unspecified.
Mollie Kaufmann is running on the slogan "More treats, less squirrels." Chloe lives next door, and is also running for office, with the exact same slogan. Their campaigns, which consist of yard signs and regular local appearances by the candidates, are inspiring smiles from those who need to lighten up a little. It's nice to know that no matter what happens on election day, these two rivals will still be friends and neighbors who don't take things too seriously.
