This could only be a benefit to all of us.
If we take the assumption (which might not be valid) that politicians are a subset of the population and that if the population has more STEM-aware people, then we'd end up with more STEM-aware politicians.
But I fear that people who understand the logic used in STEM professions are far too smart to get involved in politics.
(In all seriousnes though: Politician is one of the very best jobs you can get. You're guaranteed to get rich, live a life of utmost luxury, and have all of everything you could ever want, assuming you don't get caught.)
