I tell everyone that Cheatham is the ideal elected official, and I hope that she runs for an office that will be on my ballot. She has top-notch constituent outreach, with posts on social media about upcoming votes on Council, regular newsletter updates, and quarterly coffee meetings. As I said, I am not in her district, but I do Follow her on social media because she does such a good job of keeping people informed about what's happening in Overland Park. At the Johnson County Post forum, she described herself as having curiosity and tenacity, and I think that's a great description AND what makes her such an excellent public servant. Cheatham is also a Gun Sense Candidate, meaning she has pledged to govern with gun violence prevention in mind.
