Compare and contrast the conceptions of state legislators acting as trustees and as delegates

What will be an ideal response?


An ideal response would be:
Most legislators like to consider themselves trustees of their constituents, claiming to rely on their own conscience or on their considered judgments in making decisions. Legislators who view themselves as delegates, by contrast, adhere more closely to instructions from their constituents. Not surprisingly, the trustee role is not only more popular among legislators, but it is also easier and more realistic to practice.
