Cameron was elected to Antrim Borough Council in 2005 and was elected as the Council's first woman Mayor in 2010.[3] Prior to her election to the Assembly, Cameron was the constituency office manager for the politician Sammy Wilson.[4] Speaking about her election success, Cameron said: "I thought I would do well but I did not think I would get to this stage.
