Her district is usually characterized as Republican with a conservative incumbent.
Novotny said that isn't a fair description of the area.
"It's a moderate swing district," she said, with an extremist incumbent.
She has been told that 48 percent in her area consider themselves moderate or liberal. People in the area are concerned with jobs, not her gender identity, she said.
