And when it gets too difficult, I walk away, I take a step back and I ride a horse, it feels good to decompress. This year is the centenary, it's quite incredible. Winning the crown was not a dream but it is starting to be. On election night, I will try to highlight the simplicity, the authenticity of the people of the North. I will do my best to represent us.”  She is strong, confident, and focused towards winning.
