Rep. Hillary Scholten Shows Off Her Trivia Skills Against Radio Personality

West Michigan Congresswoman Hillary Scholten prides herself on being West Michigan's first mom to serve in Congress.

And she really lives up to that title, driving a carpool of her two sons and two of their neighbors to school every morning that she's not in Washington.

Little did I know- she's also like a lot of radio listeners, and loves to play along in the car with her carpool to the games she hears on the radio.

I met Rep. Scholten when she graciously donated to our Warm Hearts coat drive, she told me that she played along when she was in town, but I really thought it was just one of those things politicians say.

But, after seeing her again when she donated dresses to our Glam it Foward prom dress drive, she agreed to play a game outside of her minivan, and in our studio.

She joined us this morning, with the entire carpool in tow, and braved the 5 trivia questions that make up Laura Can't Lose. Every day, a listener plays me in a round of 5 questions, in hopes to snag our growing Michigan Lottery Ticket jackpot.

Rep. Scholten put up a great fight but, unforunately like many others who try to take me on, she and her carpool walked away and had to say the words no one hopes to say once their game is over...

"My name is Congresswoman Hillary Scholten, and this is my carpool, and unforunately Laura Can't Lose"

In case you missed it this morning on the show, catch up now

After the game, we joked about how much harder it is to play when you're on the spot. So, try not to judge too much. And instead, you could try to play yourself sometime weekday mornings at 7:45 on Mix 95.7.
