“Karishma’s science background, personal energy, exceptional sensitivity to those branded “other,” and excellent verbal and writing abilities in communicating ideas make her more than well-qualified for the position of U.S. Senator from NH. She is what we need most at this time, or any time, for that matter.”

Past president, American Public Health Association

“Karishma cares about science and the facts. An example is that health care is too expensive, bureaucratic, and complicated. Karishma will work to save people’s lives by leading the charge to pass quality, affordable healthcare for everyone.”

“With great enthusiasm, I endorse Karishma Manzur in her bid to become the next U.S. Senator from our great state of NH!  Karishma will be a fighter for working people and for peace and human rights here at home and around the world. She will challenge political insiders regardless of party when they appear to be more concerned with their own power and privilege than with the well-being of the people.  I wholeheartedly support her in the Democratic primary and will again in the general election!”

I'm pleased to state my endorsement of Karishma Manzur for the office of U.S. Senator for NH. Her education, compassion, and life experience have prepared her well to serve in that office. As a scientist, she has learned to work with facts. She understands the issues faced by ordinary people and she has the courage to work to address those issues.

I'm sure we've all received mailings from those who would represent us - but then fall short when you check their voting record. I know Karishma will remain true to her stated convictions and fight for the citizens of NH.“

“I am happy to endorse Karishma Manzur for the U.S. Senate. For far too long, politicians have run for leadership positions, making empty promises that they have no intention of keeping. For far too long, we have had to cast votes for the 'lesser of two evils' candidate, supporting the ever-downward spiral of a kind, fair, and just society. 

Karishma is a breath of fresh air. A voice for truth and justice. A voice for the people.”

“I am thrilled to support Karishma Manzur in her run for U.S. Senate. She’s a grassroots activist, scientist, fiercely committed to human rights and peace, and opposed to the big corporate interests that too many of our professional politicians are beholden to.”

“Karishma is the candidate I have been looking for. Smart, dedicated, and a bridge-builder, what stands out the most is her very real commitment to peace, security, freedom, and dignity for all people, regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, etc. It is the latter that is rare in our current political climate at a time in which we desperately need leaders who will work for peace and security around the world by reshaping our foreign policy.”

“Karishma Manzur would make an exemplary U.S. Senator and has my full endorsement. Karishma’s passion and aptitude for democratic action will bring positive change to NH and Washington. She is a true leader we can all follow.”

“As a former NH state rep. and a first responder, I know firsthand the importance of leadership that truly serves the public. The work ahead is vital, and it requires a senator who will not just talk about change but actively lead the charge for disabled Americans. That is why I am proud to endorse Karishma for U.S. Senate. Karishma is a candidate who truly gets it. She understands that the struggles many of us face aren't just personal—they're systemic, and they need a champion in Washington. When it comes to disability rights, Karishma doesn't just talk the talk. She listens. And when it comes to healthcare for all, Karishma's vision is rooted in empathy. She believes that no one should have to choose between their health and financial security. Karishma will bring a much-needed perspective to the Senate. She will fight for a world where compassion and common sense guide our healthcare policy, and where the rights of people with disabilities are not an afterthought but a priority. That's why I'm voting for her, and I hope you will too.”

“On every single issue, Karishma puts people, planet, and democracy first. And she doesn’t just “talk the talk”, she “walks the walk”—showing up, listening to people, doing the hard work of actually creating positive change in what matters most to Granite Staters. She gives me hope for the future. She’s got my vote!”

US Army veteran, Retired Attorney

“Having gotten to know Karishma Manzur, I am impressed with her kindness, compassion, work ethic, moral clarity, respect for facts and truth, and her commitment to the common good.

I strongly support Karishma Manzur’s candidacy. She would be an exceptional U.S. Senator.  She offers a positive alternative to our country’s current politics. She is intelligent, energetic, and strongly committed to fairness and justice for each of us, no matter who or what we are.  She does not demonize or belittle any person or group. Unlike all too many of our leaders, she recognizes that true public service is to work for the common good, not for personal gain or glory. Since her grassroots campaign rejects the big money and special interest groups that now corrupt our politics, Karishma is free to address the real challenges to our country, not the media-driven diversions, and to work for real solutions that benefit all of us and America's future.”

“Karishma cares about the issues of all Granite Staters and the peace of all people worldwide.”

Portsmouth, NH

“Karishma is a compassionate, brilliant, exceedingly competent candidate who enters politics for the right reason - to actually represent everyone in NH, to address the real struggles for basic needs, and to fight to preserve our threatened democracy. We need leaders with integrity, who can not be bought and who care more about doing the right thing than pandering to special interest groups. Karishma represents the type of leader that can move us forward and help restore NH to a place where people and democracy can thrive.”

“I am proud to announce my support for Karishma Manzur as she kicks off her campaign for the U.S. Senate, representing ALL the people of New Hampshire, not just the well-connected and powerful. 

I'm sure you'd agree with me that we are living through a dangerous transition for our country and the world. We need a new crop of leaders committed to defending democracy, human rights, equity, free speech, and science against the onslaught of misinformation and hate washing over the world. 

Karishma is a proud scientist, mom, peace activist from the Seacoast of the Granite State who is all of the above and more. She represents a fresh, progressive wave of change that is beginning to emerge as an antidote to the politics of nationalism, genocide, oligarchy, and dystopia.”

“Karishma Manzur is a compassionate, dedicated progressive who will help NH and the country move in the direction of addressing our broken healthcare system, housing, the climate crisis, and money in politics. Karishma is the best person to represent NH in the Senate, and she will work to improve the lives of all Americans.

I am a long-time disability and single-payer health advocate. I have worked with local groups to advocate for racial equity in health by providing better healthcare facilities in the Black wards of DC. I currently work with disability justice activists to ensure that single-payer universal healthcare proposals incorporate the services that disabled people need to live independent, successful lives.”
