Poonam Gill has declared her candidacy for Indiana House Representative for the 88th District. The district seat has been held by the same representative since 1986.
“We need more people who are invested in our communities, who care about working together, listening to one another and creating solutions to step up and lead,” Gill says. “This is how we create change. This is how we do better. It’s time we replace career politicians. I will no longer accept divisiveness at the expense of hardworking families and children who deserve better.”
Gill, who holds a degree in Electrical Engineering from Purdue University, is the Outreach Chair for the Hamilton County Democratic Party and last year was one of 40 Democrats across the state to be selected to the Indiana Democratic Party’s Emerging Leaders Project. She is also a graduate of the Fishers City Government Academy.
Indiana House District 88 encompasses southeast Hamilton County along with Hancock and Marion counties.
