Former Write-In Candidate & Mama Bear Kristina Irwin Captures Momentum

FORMER MAMA BEAR STATE SENATE “WRITE-IN” CANDIDATE, KRISTINA IRWIN JUMPS BACK INTO THE

2026 CALIFORNIA STATE SENATE RACE

Mom, Wife, Immigrant, Real Estate Agent, Constitutional Conservative and Advocate for Better Schools and a Better California

April 24, 2025 – Kristina Irwin is an America First candidate who ran as a write-in candidate in 2022 for CA State Senate against Democrat incumbent Ben Allen who had been running unopposed for 12 years. Allen, a progressive Democrat has been pushing his woke and socialist agenda for far too long and is being termed out in 2026. As a write-in candidate, Kristina beat the odds and received nearly 6,300 votes – the highest number of write-in votes for a State Senate District in the history of Los Angeles County, if not the State.

In 2022 and now, Kristina had earned endorsements of many diverse and supportive groups such as the California Republican Assembly (CRA), California Parents United (CPU), Los Angeles Educators and Parents United, Stand Up LA Moms, and Patriots for Freedom PAC. She is also endorsed by former Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors Mike Antonovich, former Ambassador Richard Grenell, talk show hosts Dennis Prager and Jennifer Horn, the Los Angeles Hispanic Republican Club, the Malibu/Bel Air Republican Women’s Federated, the Santa Monica Women’s Republican Federated, as well as former two term Mayor of Manhattan Beach, Russ Lesser.

At the age of three, Kristina and her family immigrated from Yugoslavia (now Serbia) to escape communism for a better life. She grew up in Santa Monica, attended Santa Monica High School and has an “up close and personal” knowledge and insight into the many needs of District 24, which spans across the beach communities and includes some of the most affluent areas of Los Angeles. “This district is my home. District 24 is worth fighting for and I’ll fight for our kids and for a better quality of life.” She then goes on to say, “Our issues matter, our community matters and I will proudly represent your voices in Sacramento.”

Always a leader and a proud first generation American who strives for excellence, fairness and success. During the 2020 unconstitutional and unnecessary COVID-19 lockdowns and mandates that destroyed businesses and schools, Kristina sprang into action as a “Mama Bear” to

advocate for the health and welfare of all California school children—including her own three children who attend schools in LAUSD.

As a strong constitutional conservative, a Christian who is pro-Israel, a devoted wife and mother, she stands for our God-given freedoms, law and order, keeping criminals off the streets, election integrity, small businesses, fiscal growth and lower taxes, medical freedom, safe schools, parental rights, school choice, secure borders, clean air, safe and clean streets and neighborhoods, sufficient energy and water supplies—and, she has a strategy to solve the homeless crisis.

Kristina is fed up with the super majority Democrat machine in Sacramento and its out-of-control politicians whose agendas and bad policies are destroying our once beautiful and prosperous California. Kristina is a strong candidate to make California safe, prosperous and golden once again.
