“Concept - 5/5, Theme – 5/5, Overall - 4.5 out of 5; Overall I really love this script and think it’s very well done. You’ve done a fantastic job setting up a small-town political story that aptly reflects and represents the state of culture and politics in present-day America. I think a small-town mayoral race is such a smart way to make commentary about the chasms between the right and left; the depths of voter intimidation and suppression; and the political divide that has separated townsfolk and families.
