I loved the city, so the feeling in 2001 [election] first was shock, then (I was) nervous, then scared but then it’s – I really wasn’t happy and ecstatic like I thought I (would be). I was immediately hit with the enormity of the responsibility and the fact that most people in that town – particularly those that voted for me were placing their hopes and dreams in me. That is a big, big stressful place to be.
