In Part 2 of our ongoing series with Provo's mayoral candidates, the "What Say Ye?" podcast sits down with Michelle Kaufusi.

A longtime Provo resident — she was born and raised here — Kaufusi was the first of Provo's mayoral candidates to announce their candidacy. She has served on the Provo School Board for the past six years, and is also a member of Provo City’s Citizens Advisory Board and the Utah High School Athletic Association.

“I feel like running for mayor, and the mayor’s seat, it’s not my seat. It’s the community’s seat,” Kaufusi said during our interview. “Just know, I’ve run campaigns and been in it a long time. I will never forget that.”
