2026 Candidates
We're proud to have endorsed the following candidates in 2026!
CHRIS GAMBINO
"I believe a vibrant democracy depends on real choice, real access, and real accountability. When voters are forced into narrow options chosen by party structures, trust erodes and participation declines."
VALERIE GAYDOS
"First, partisanship should never matter when making decisions. Second, life has enough burdens and government shouldn't be one of them. Third, everyone deserves to be treated with respect and civility."
SHANNON JACKSON
"I agree with and support nearly all the major objectives of the Forward Party... to grant more choices for voters... for free people—ALL people regardless of categories of race, religion, or culture."
DENNIS MAHONEY
"Service before politics. Neighborhoods before parties." Running to bring real independent representation for Pennsylvania's 3rd Congressional District.
RON RUMAN
"I believe we need more choices in our elections and to get away from the political extremes. The Forward Party allows candidates to support or oppose issues as the candidate sees fit."
More unites us than divides us.
