I realized I'm not the kind of person who wants to go with the flow and fit in. I'm an agitator, I'm opinionated, I'm a libertine and leader.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I am quite driven. I know what I think, and I know what I want to achieve, but I also hope that people who are asked to describe me would describe me as pretty down-to-earth, loyal, friendly. The more experience I have got in politics, I think the more I have allowed me to shine through.
I've always been really opinionated, and mixed with being really open hearted, open to people shifting what I think all the time, but I like to speak with conviction.
I'm outspoken and I'm headstrong.
I'm not a natural leader. I'm too intellectual; I'm too abstract; I think too much.
Now that I am a deputy, I will cease to be an agitator.
I'm strong and opinionated. Those qualities brought me a lot of problems since I was a little girl in school, saying 'I don't agree' and fighting with the children. It's part of my curiosity for life.
I understand people, and I think that my life and my history and what I represent can relate to a lot of the women, the independents, the moderate voters.
I'm a bit of a Libertarian.
I surround myself with a talented group of people that are opinionated and interesting. I try to remain very open to what others have to say.
I don't have the activist temperament. I like listening to divergent points of view and hearing people out. I like getting along. I even like being liked, although activists of any stripe should get rid of that handicap at the outset.
