Re: State of the Race: Why Carol is the best candidate for PA-07
Carol Obando-Derstine is ready to flip PA-07 and send a true community leader to Congress. Here's where our campaign stands — and why Carol is best positioned to defeat MAGA Republican Ryan Mackenzie in one of the most competitive districts in the country.
1. Carol's story is a Pennsylvania story
Carol is the daughter of Colombian immigrants, a bilingual community leader, and an energy engineer who's dedicated her career to helping working families lower costs. She's served as Regional Affairs Director at PPL and advised Senator Casey and Governor Wolf on Latino affairs.
2. We're building grassroots momentum
Carol's campaign is built by and for the community she's spent her life serving. From local volunteers organizing neighborhood events to bilingual outreach connecting with Latino voters in every corner of the district, this campaign is powered by people — not insiders or special interests.
3. Major endorsements from trusted leaders
EMILYs List, 314 Action, Latino Victory Fund, BOLD PAC, Former Rep. Susan Wild, and Rep. Veronica Escobar have all endorsed Carol because they believe in her campaign and the trust she's earned from advocates across the state.
4. The only candidate in the race who isn't a white man
Carol is the only woman and the only Latina on the ballot — and the only candidate authentically engaging with Latino voters in their language and on their platforms. Carol looks nothing like her opponents, and that's a good thing! It's time we elect voices that are representative of our community.
5. Ryan Mackenzie is dangerously out of step with Pennsylvania families
Ryan Mackenzie has spent his career siding with Donald Trump and MAGA extremists. He voted to slash health care and SNAP benefits for thousands of local families — and he's refused to hold a single in-person town hall since taking office.
We're building a winning coalition, but we need your help to stay competitive and show national Democrats that we're ready to take this seat back. Together, we can defeat Ryan Mackenzie and send a leader who will fight for affordable healthcare, reproductive rights, and a better future for all of us.
Will you help us continue building momentum by contributing today? |

Team Carol Obando-Derstine |
