Hello Webkinz Newz readers, it’s Ella McWoof, your official “Webkinz Votes 2014” reporter.
In early October, Ms. Cowoline, the School Superintendent at the Kinzville Academy, became the third candidate to run for Mayor of Kinzville. If elected mayor, she has promised to reduce the number of days required to earn recess from 15 down to 10. However, she also mentioned she would be unable to keep the Super School Days program open. You can read the full story HERE.
Today I’m in studio for a special one on one interview with “Webkinz Votes 2014” mayoral candidate, Ms. Cowoline!
ELLA: Ms. Cowoline, thank you for joining me today.
MS. COWOLINE: It’s always a pleasure to talk to one of the academy’s most talented alumni. It feels like just yesterday you were reading the daily announcement over the school PA. Now you’ve become the trusted voice for the citizens of Kinzville! We’re all so proud of you, Ella!
ELLA: Aw, thanks Ms. Cowoline! I have to ask though– what do you think of another one of your little students running against you for Mayor of Kinzville? Of course I’m referring to your daughter, Cowabelle!
MS. COWOLINE: I’m also very proud of Cowabelle. I’ve always raised her to care about her friends and her community, so I wasn’t totally surprised to learn that she also wanted to run for mayor.
ELLA: About that: some have suggested that Cowabelle’s entry into the race was an attempt to get your attention, and that she is concerned about the demands on your time, between running the academy AND becoming mayor.
MS. COWOLINE: She certainly has a right to be concerned. Public office does demand a lot of one’s time, and juggling both will be a challenge. However, this is exactly the reason why I said I would not be able to continue the Super School Days program if I was elected mayor. My first and most important job is being Cowabelle’s mother, and I would never allow anything to take priority over her.
ELLA: On a different subject, what do you think about Daisy Doe’s recent announcement to partner with Mr. Moo’s ice cream stand business?
MS: COWOLINE: I certainly applaud Ms. Doe’s willingness to adapt her previous approach to creating change for Kinzville. However, I must admit to being a little suspicious about her motivations.
ELLA: So you think it’s just a ploy to help get her elected?
MS. COWOLINE: I think Ms. Doe is still quite new to this town, and I think it’s early for anyone to be entirely sure what her true intentions might be.
ELLA: And what do you think of the other candidates who have entered the race?
MS. COWOLINE: I’m afraid I don’t know very much about Mr. Dangerous beyond his films. However, Tabby and Sheldon are both good friends of mine, so I’m honored to have their added perspectives as we all work towards the same goal of making Kinzville a better place to live and play.
ELLA: Is there anything you’d like to add about your campaign or about the election in general? Something you’d like the voters to know?
MS. COWOLINE: I think everyone already knows my values well enough. They know what kind of mayor I would be. They know how much I care about everyone in Kinzville. No matter what the polls say, I won’t be changing my platform in an attempt to get more votes. I think this is a very important time for the citizens of Kinzville. They have six strong candidates who all have a vision for the future of this community. But when “Mooving Forward”, some things must be left behind in order for there to be progress. I want the voters to focus on the positive change that each candidate is looking to bring to Kinzville, rather than worrying about holding on to the past and the way things were. If they vote with that in mind, then no matter what the outcome is for me, I will be happy that the citizens of Kinzville have made the right decision.
Thanks Ms. Cowoline! Log into Webkinz World today (Nov 11th) to get your own Ms. Cowoline Election Cap and stay tuned for my interviews with the rest of the candidates. My full interview schedule can be seen HERE.

This has been Ella McWoof reporting for Webkinz Newz.
Go Ms. Cowoline!! You would be best for mayor! I’m definitely voting for you.
well i’m voting 4 ms. cowoline alright
Still not voting for Ms. Cowoline. After all, the only benefit to her is less of a wait till recess. Dex is next, right?!?! #TheHeroicChoice ***MidnightQueen***
why dex? he’s going to make us go a whole year without releasing any new themes besides his.
Dex Isn’t really too bad elsafan13 :) I think we could survive :) I’m still voting for Cowabelle thoe :D #JoinTheAdventure!!!!!!!!!!! I’m just glad you’re not voting for Daisy Doe MidnightQueen :) :) :)
MOVING FORWARD THE PAST IS IN THE PAST y should kids b able to run as mayor the only thing Cowabelle knows 2 do is 2 be a kid!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lets give kinzville a professional look by electing miss cowoline. :-)
Ehh, still not a fan of abandoning Super School Day since that has really helped me train my pets. Sheldon still holds my vote mainly because there isn’t really anything wrong with Webkinz World. The only thing I want changed is the Deluxe Membership, which none of the candidates are changing. Also, the “clinging onto the past” thing…past Webkinz were better. Both plush and online. So that’s why I’m sticking with it.
You are amazing! I love your comment!!
Totally agree, SS days are important to train our pets! And I’ve been saying the same thing since Sheldon ran, there is nothing wrong with WW. I would change the membership too and the past was better. The new plushies are so-so and the recent online changes have not been great.
Completely agree.
I like the Super School Days, too! Mainly because I usually forget to actually train my pets most days, so at least then I can move them further a little faster. And although I’m voting for Cowabelle, I still feel nostalgic for “old Webkinz”. I wish they would bring back the old “Take a Tour” video (even though it isn’t very helpful now), because D’AWW IT WAS SO CUTE. Maybe as a Throwback Thursday thing (although I’m not sure if they’re doing that anymore)?
Webkinz bff lydia and ellie my9tail778 tty2014
Sorry Ms. Cowline i’m not voting for you I’m voting for Dex Dangerous since no one is voting for him
I agree that it seems a little fishy that Daisy has formed this partnership with Mr. Moo, but I don’t want to jump to conclusions…. And I am glad that Ms. Cowline is not changing her platform JUST because she’s down in the polls. I think I’m voting for Cowabelle, but I’m not for sure yet, I wanna see how the rest of the interviews go. -NANCYDREW1
