Madison, Wisconsin - Deisy España, 21, has announced her candidacy to run as a Democrat for the Wisconsin State Assembly District 9. The Wisconsin Primary Election will take place on August 13, 2024 and the General Election will be held on November 5, 2024.

So far, no Republican candidate has officially announced their candidacy for the State Assembly District 9th, which has a majority Democrat voting base.

España in a press release says, "...as a member of Gen Z, a Latina, an organizer, and proud daughter of Mexican immigrants, I am excited to announce my candidacy for the 9th Assembly seat...Now with new maps, we have an opportunity to completely change the way the legislature looks and deliver the wins that our communities deserve. As the 9th District's representative I will fight for immigrant rights, to ensure we restore driver licenses for our undocumented community and continue to fight for in-state tuition and professional licenses for DACA recipients,"  said Deisy España. "I will push for the expansion of BadgerCare, the restoration of workers' rights, strong public schools, and other policies that will serve and advance working class families."
