Doodle a day #21, Mayor Mare.

Looks like she’s out stumping for re-election. Which begs the question, with a name like Mayor Mare, what else could she do? Uh oh, is this the part where we’re not supposed to think too much about pony names?

Or maybe Mayor really is her title, and she has another first name no one ever bothers to say because–well, she’s the mayor. It’d be disrespectful.

Crusaders of the Lost Mark touched on politics a bit (you know, that whole part before the fandom exploded and wept joyfully for a week). Maybe they could get back to that in the future, in an episode where the mayor just isn’t the mayor anymore. Now what will you do? What would any pony do? As the Flim Flam brothers put it, “Guess you’ll have to find a new line of work that doesn’t match your names quite so…perfectly.”
