LD26 Candidate for State House
My name is Jonathan McKenna and I’m running for State Representative in LD26.
Public service runs in my family. My grandfather, uncle, brother, and cousin all served as state representatives, but I’m not a career politician. I’m someone who lives here, sees what’s happening to our neighborhoods, and refuses to stay quiet about it.
I’ve watched crime, open drug use, homelessness, and rising costs make daily life harder for regular people in this district. Lack of leadership and political theater is a direct cause to this mess. I’m running because I believe it’s going to take someone who isn’t a politician to start fixing it.
I’m focused on results that matter locally: safer streets, lower costs for working people, and cleaner, more livable neighborhoods. That’s it.

I’m running to bring real, unapologetic leadership back to the State Capitol. No more harmful social experiments. No more tax burdens forced onto working families. We must protect our communities, our city, and the future of our state.
Cesar Aguilar and Quantá Crews have had years to deliver results, yet LD26 is still struggling with rising taxes, failing schools, open drug use, and harmful policies coming from Phoenix. They seem far more interested in catering to their favorite identity groups while demeaning citizens and community members they refuse to represent. Meanwhile, our families are paying the price with higher costs, less safety, and less say over what happens to our District. LD26 deserves better. We deserve representatives who put the citizens of this district first — all of them, without resentment.
To qualify for public funding, I need $5 contributions from LD26 voters.
Eligible: Any registered voter in LD26 (one per person).These help me run without big donors.
