Republican U.S. Rep. Brian Mast has a new Democratic challenger: Pia Dandiya, a former high school principal and White House fellow who now leads public sector initiatives for Apple.
Dandiya, a first-generation American living with her husband and son in Palm Beach Gardens, just announced her candidacy in Florida’s 21st Congressional District. She’s running, she said, to “make the American dream accessible to every family across the country.”
“Now more than ever, we need leaders in Washington with a proven track record of putting the American people first,” she said in a statement. “Elected leadership shouldn’t be about headlines or political fights — it should be about the American people.”
