Background
Stanton was co-opted to Belfast City Council in 2000, for the Oldpark District, before losing her seat in the 2001 local government elections. She was then elected to the Northern Ireland Assembly, representing North Belfast, in the 2003 election. As a Sinn Féin representative, Stanton served as a party official in North Belfast, as well as equality spokesperson. In 2006, she announced that she would not be contesting the next Assembly election, but denied reports that this was owing to Sinn Féin endorsing the Police Service of Northern Ireland. [1]
