My name is Nada Elmikashfi and I'm an immigrant black Muslim woman and Democratic candidate for Wisconsin State Senate District 26. As a longtime resident of Madison, I'm dedicated to re-establishing Madison's proud progressive tradition by promoting social equity, fighting the climate crises, and closing the educational achievement gap in our state.
  • Madison families have struggled underneath a legislature that does not do enough to alleviate the hardships that stem from inequity and political stagnation in this district.
  • We must bring a working-class legislative agenda to Wisconsin's legislature, our community deserves incredible service and policies that alleviate their burdens.
  • Madisonians deserve a Senator that serves their interests, understands their values, and cares for their future.
