Amy Poehler was asked who Leslie Knope, Pawnee’s Deputy Director of the Parks and Recreation Department, would vote for. Though they get his first name wrong, she says Leslie would really be into Pete Buttigieg.
Buttigieg responded on twitter:
“Wait till she realizes she’s talking about the Indiana Parks and Recreation Association’s 2018 Elected Official of the Year...”
Here’s the thread:
I’m liking Buttigieg more and more each day. I hope he gets a real chance to take part in the debates. I know in the past, some ‘outsider’ candidates merely got to stand on the stage while the headliners got all the focus.
