Carson City's Candy Girls!!

Imagine this: Sugar Daddy's lining dorm room walls, huge candy canes located everywhere, gumdrops seem as if they fell off trees covering the ground, and the thought of chocolate on every girl's mind. No, we are not in your dream candy store; instead we are in Carson City- not to be confused with the Lassen Lollipops. Carson is a city like any other, with unique animal sightings such as Gummy Bears, Swedish Fish, and Animal Crackers.

This patch of girls from Carson City may be "sour" on the outside, but they are "sweet" and "chill" on the inside. I hope you have a sweet tooth when learning about theses candy girls as they take you on a journey. These girls always shine through like a rainbow with their kind words and actions.

City spirit is a huge part in our daily lives here at Girls State. Throughout the day we shout various cheers such as: C-C-C-A-R, S-S-S-O-N, C-A-R-S-O-N, GO CARSON!!!

Although we are one party composed of 29 members within our city we are divided into two political parties; the Whigs and the Tories. The Whig party tends to be more conservative while the Tory party more liberal. However, our city, along with the other cities of Girls State, are working hard to define and shape the two party views for ourselves. In Carson we have 11 Tory party members and 18 Whigs.

In a recent poll we learned the favorite candies of the Carson citizens:

Snickers- 9
Butterfingers- 7
Reeses'- 8
Skittles- 4
3 Musketeers- 1

(when leaving your comments, add your favorite to our poll!)

In our city we have Melissa Hazelwood, Zoe Binsch, Kassie Fuchs, and Priya Bisarya running for state office. We wish them good luck and for representing Carson in the upcoming elections! When the results are announced I will post a list of all the winners from Carson.

Signing off,
Christina Fawcett, Carson City Editor

Stay sweet and I will see you tomorrow!
