I wonder how it would look on a resume? Or would running for mayor develop any skills? Running a campaign, public speaking, etc...., especially if you're on the marketing, communications field?
I mean, there are 40+ candidates running for Governor in California in an election that might not even happen, only activates if the recall vote wins.

Does the person who will finish 24th even do any of these skill-building things? Or it is all for show and crazyness?
