McBride emphasizes the importance of representation, saying, "There are a lot of people right now in this country who don't see themselves reflected in government, and they deserve to see that."
Despite her historic candidacy, McBride notes, "It's not what I'm talking about or thinking about. It's not what voters are talking to me about."
Reflecting on her achievements, McBride states, "I've never had a job where I haven't had death threats, that's the reality for a transgender woman in politics."
McBride highlights the growing opposition she faces, mentioning that "Republicans across the nation have turned gender identity into a wedge issue, campaigning on promises to ban trans women from female sports."
