Madison, WI – Today, Dina Nina Martinez-Rutherford announced her campaign’s fundraising numbers in the primary election to represent Assembly District 76.
Since launching in September, Martinez-Rutherford has raised more than $100,000 in contributions from over 1,200 unique donors, all without taking a cent of corporate PAC money. Donors to the campaign include teachers, union nurses, small business owners, service workers, letter carriers, students, seniors, and community leaders from Madison and across Wisconsin.
“This is a campaign for the many. District 76 deserves a legislator who will lower costs, protect our democracy, and fight like hell for working people – not billionaires and big corporations. I’m so grateful for the support our campaign has received. Together, we’re going to win this race and deliver the bold, progressive change that Wisconsin needs,” Martinez-Rutherford said.
If elected, Martinez-Rutherford would make history as Wisconsin’s first transgender state legislator. She has earned the endorsement of labor unions, progressive organizations, and more than 65 current and former elected officials, as well as over six dozen community leaders.
The 76th Assembly District includes downtown Madison, Maple Bluff, and neighborhoods on the east and north side. For more information about Dina Nina’s campaign, visit VoteDinaNina.com.
