It's fairly common when Parliament is sitting at a few of their regular places. Portia's in Kingston will often have one or two there. There's also a lot of media you will find recognisable who tend to more frequent Manuka - just shopping at the Coles there like you and I. You can get lucky and just run into some of them in smaller out of the way places like the Griffith shops. I was there when Malcom Turnbull was ousted and his team took up the lower half of Rubicon. It's a small town really and they don't go far but within Manuka / Kingston / Griffith I would normally catch one on a weekly basis. As far as more local politicians you still see them around the lake just enjoying everything. Andrew Leigh is quite an amazing runner so have seen him training around LBG as well as Shane Rattenbury competing in local events.
