Pakistani-American candidates have made notable strides in the ongoing US elections, reflecting a growing influence in American politics.

In the ongoing US presidential elections, Pakistani-American Salman Bhojani celebrated his re-election to the Texas State Assembly, marking another milestone in his political career.

Running as a Democrat, Bhojani won his seat with a strong lead, underscoring his firm support base in Texas. Known for his dedication to representing diverse communities, his victory highlights the growing influence of South Asian Americans in US politics.

Another Pakistani-American, Suleman Lalani, also celebrated a decisive win in his re-election to the Texas Assembly, defeating his opponent by a substantial margin.

While the victories of Bhojani and Lalani represent progress for Pakistani-American representation, Republican Aaron Bashir, the only Pakistani-American running for Congress, faced disappointment in Pennsylvania, where she lost a close race. Similarly, Ayesha Farooqui, running for the House of Representatives in Michigan, was defeated.

Bhojani’s re-election is a significant achievement, reflecting the increasing involvement of Pakistani Americans in US public service. First elected in 2022, Bhojani has championed key community issues such as healthcare, education, and business development and has been a prominent advocate for immigrant rights.
