I'd imagine that those people have quite a variety of opinions on what those interests might be. It can be especially problematic when "vocal groups" (fundamentalists, teachers' unions, etc.) are especially vocal (and have open check books). It seems to me that most politicians consider their particular ideology to coincide with the "best interests" of their constituents.

His job is to work in the best interests of those he represents - in this case the entire state - not just on behalf of one small but vocal group. Exactly.

Wow. Wasn't his job then to serve the common interest, eg., represent ALL OF HIS PEOPLE? Hmm. Or do some still think the world revolves around them... “He worked to serve all of the residents of his state, and for some on the right, well that’s just unacceptable.”
