Rejani Raveendran, a 40-year-old Indian immigrant and college student, has declared her candidacy for the US Senate in Wisconsin, challenging Democratic Senator Tammy Baldwin. Raveendran, a member of the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point College Republicans, aims to bring a fresh perspective to politics, emphasizing the need for new faces with innovative ideas. While her entry is considered a longshot, she advocates for border security, tackling illicit drugs, addressing illegal immigration, and supporting “medical freedom.” Raveendran became a US citizen in 2015 and plans to focus on issues impacting regular people’s lives.
