Meet the six women who want to take their conservative values to Washington starting with Mia Love seeking reelection for a third term in Utah.

Running for reelection, Mia Love, made history when she became the first Black female Republican elected to Congress and the first Haitian American elected to Congress from the state of Utah in 2015. Prior to that she served as mayor of Saratoga Springs, Utah from 2010-2014. She defeated her Democratic opponent Doug Owens twice in 2014 and 2016 to win her second term. The Hill reported that her challenger Democrat Ben McAdams is leading her in the polls by six points as of October 2018.

Aja Smith grew up in Moreno Valley, Calif., raised by both her mother and grandmother who worked long hours as nurses, providing for her and ensuring she had every opportunity that her peers had, according to Smith.

In 2002, Smith joined the United States Air Force Reserve. In 2007, she was deployed to Qatar and stationed at Al-Udeid Air Force Base during Operation Enduring Freedom.

Liz Matory is a small business owner and author of ‘Born Again Republican,’ the book about what she learned after leaving the Democrat Party, connecting with voters as an independent and discovering that she is a conservative.

After running for Congress in 2016, she became very active in party building efforts across the state with the Maryland Federation of Republican Women and the Maryland Republican Party.

Born and raised in Memphis, Tenn., Bergmann describes herself as a devout Christian. She retired from FedEx in 2000, as a Technology Project Manager and now she runs a “small family business.” She said she plans to help push legislation to insure that healthcare is affordable and ultimately the responsibility of the doctor and the patient, without government intervention. “I am proud to say that I am a steadfast supporter of President Donald J. Trump. I stood in the rain holding the Trump/Pence signs and organized rallies during the Tennessee elections because I believed Trump would win in order to Make America Great Again.”
