“Yassamin Ansari served as the Vice Mayor of Phoenix and was the youngest woman ever elected to the Phoenix City Council, representing one of the most diverse districts in the fifth-largest and fastest-growing city in the country.
The proud daughter of immigrants and graduate of Stanford and Cambridge universities, Yassamin led the charge to pass the city’s landmark Climate Action Plan, has fought for the protection of reproductive rights, and secured millions in free tuition for students pursuing community college and good jobs in the trades.”
Carolyn’s note: CD 3 is currently represented for 10 years by Democrat Ruben Gallego, running for US Senate. It will be an open seat and Yassamin is being challenged by Republican Jeff Zink.
Voter stats for CD 3: Dems 137,062; Republicans 45, 552; Others 123,028.
