Halloween has become a time for some to dress up as your favorite — or least favorite — politician. Or, if you’re a politician, dress up in a clever way.

So, Heard on the Hill celebrated #HOHhalloween and collected photos of people politically dressed this year. It’s not too late to send us photographs of your costumes!

Here’s some of our favorites, which didn’t include the typical Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton or Ken Bone.

 

When you dress up as your favorite senator…

Or to promote your favorite bill…

May the force (and campaign donations) be with you…
