She admits she got the idea from a bakery in pennsylvania that has predicted the last 3 elections based on which candidate co more.

She hoped it would be something fun for the community.

Everyone is talking.

And so far it has been fun, she says no matter what side you're on everyone can rally behind cookies.

Miller: that's what we're all about community, and we'd love for our politician to work together but everyone is enjoying our cookies.
