The really cool thing about local politicians is that unlike higher levels of government, they tend to actually live locally. Means you can pretty easily coordinate things like pleasant sit-down conversations, or shouting obscenities at them while they're trying to do their grocery shopping.
The really bad thing about that is the "try that in a small town" factor when they just call their friend, the police chief, and next thing you know you're trying to remember the ACLU's phone number for your one phone call (:
