"TOPEKA – Stephanie Mott stands in the Kansas House of Representatives and, misty-eyed, talks about how much history has taken place in this room.
She's been in the building before, but this is the first time she has been on the House floor. She walks slowly as she surveys the seats of Democratic lawmakers and pauses when she sees a name she recognizes. "
To be honest, I would feel more excited about this if she were elected. But she can always run for re-election and it's nice to see people like this in public spaces.
