He is the delegate type of representative. In these cases, the representative bases all their decisions solely on what the constituency wants, with no input of his own from what might actually be the best or most ethical decision. This is in comparison to the trustee, who actually uses their own best judgment at times to make what could be considered unpopular stands on issues.
