By the time she completed college, Huckabee had already been active in politics for a long time. During her father's unsuccessful bid for election to the U.S. Senate in 1992, she had filled envelopes with campaign literature (despite still being in elementary school at the time), and while at Ouachita Baptist was an active participant in the college's Republican organizations. In 2002, as her father (successfully) sought election to a second full term as Arkansas governor, Huckabee worked as field coordinator for his campaign. | By the time she completed college, Huckabee had already been active in politics for a long time.
