Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A lobbyist fits the description of a representative of a special-interest group who tries to influence political decisions on the group's behalf. An activist may perform similar actions, but they are not necessarily tied to a specific interest group. A voter is not necessarily representing a special-interest group, nor directly influencing political decisions. A diplomat and ambassador are representatives of governments in foreign countries, and do not necessarily have ties to special-interest groups.
