State Senator Natalie Murdock represents North Carolina's 20th District. After hearing about some of the difficulties facing Durham County residents, she was inspired to run for elected office and put her skills to use.

Murdock enjoys the "organized chaos" of the legislative environment, especially when she can pass a bill that makes an impact on her community. She's learned that persistence and patience are key to passing meaningful legislation. 

In three words, Murdock describes her district as "vibrant, eclectic, and cool." She would take an out-of-town visitor to a Durham Bulls game.
