I'm not everyone's cup of tea

I know I’m not everyone’s cup of tea, friend. That’s a hard lesson you learn very early on as a Black woman in politics. I know I’m not going to win every single vote when I’m on the ballot – and that’s okay. So even if I’m not everyone’s cup of tea, I’ll represent all of my constitu…
