      Kat Abughazaleh is running for House District Illinois-09

      I checked her website and she seems to have a decent approach to most things. Of course the website is like all candidate websites. “Give me money!” buttons all over the place.

        She’s asking for money from constituents, not from corporations. Money is a requirement to get your name out there so enough people are aware of you enough to vote for you. I don’t see how asking for money is a criticism. I give money to politicians whose platforms I agree with.

        One of the interesting tactics she’s been using in her campaign is spending donated funds to help the residents of the district. I don’t know how much she spends on traditional campaign ads and consultants, but it’s less than the 100% most do and she’s held events that were just volunteering for public benefit.

      She’s really great. She’s running for congress in Illinois. She has been at all the ice protests.
