The Chester County Republican Committee has endorsed Tina Ayala as a write-in candidate in the May 19, 2026 Republican Primary for Pennsylvania House District 158 — and for good reason. Tina is exactly the kind of candidate our community needs: principled, experienced, and ready to fight for the values that matter most to residents of the Kennett Square area.

This is your chance to make your voice heard before November. A strong showing in the Primary sends a clear message: District 158 is ready for real representation.

Why a Write-In? Here's What You Need to Know

Because Tina is running as a write-in candidate, her name will not appear on the printed ballot. You'll need to write her name in yourself on Primary day. It takes just a few extra seconds — and it matters enormously.

On May 19th, write in: TINA AYALA

That's it. That's how you nominate her as the Republican candidate for the November General Election, where she will face incumbent Democrat Christina Sappey.

Who Is Tina Ayala?

Tina is not a career politician. She's a wife, mother, and business professional — and she brings a refreshingly real-world perspective to the issues facing our district.

Born into a Hispanic, low-income family, Tina knows firsthand what financial hardship looks like. She was the first in her family to earn a college degree, and she paid off every dollar of her student loans while working two jobs. That's not a talking point — that's lived experience.

As a financial professional, Tina works daily with tax returns, income statements, and balance sheets. She understands how economic policy affects real families and small businesses, and she knows how to read the numbers that Harrisburg too often ignores.

Why Hispanic Voters in District 158 Should Take a Hard Look at Tina Ayala

District 158 is home to one of the most vibrant and hardworking Hispanic communities in all of Chester County. These are families who came here — or whose parents came here — chasing exactly what Tina Ayala's own family chased: a better life, a fair shot, and the freedom to build something of their own.

That's not a Republican talking point. That's Tina's story.

The Values Match Has Always Been There

Hispanic culture is rooted in values that align naturally with conservatism: faith, family, hard work, personal responsibility, and community. Hispanic voters in this district aren't a monolith, and they don't need to be told what to think — but they do deserve a candidate who actually reflects their lived experience rather than one who simply assumes their vote. In fact, these are values that voters of all backgrounds share.

What Tina Stands For

Tina is a proud conservative who believes in:

Economic growth — pro-business, low-tax policies that let families and entrepreneurs thrive
Law and order — safe schools and communities where families can put down roots without fear
Legal immigration — a secure border and a fair, lawful path for those who follow the rules
Parental rights — keeping parents in charge of their children's education and upbringing
Common sense — opposing radical policies like biological males competing in women's sports

The Contrast with Christina Sappey

Longtime incumbent Christina Sappey has held this seat for years, but her voting record tells a story that many District 158 residents simply don't know about. When voters learn the full picture of what Sappey has promoting in Harrisburg, they realize that she doesn't share their values.

People are shocked when they find out what Sappey has been voting for - like supporting MEN in WOMEN’S sports, blocking parents from having access to their children's curriculum, and preventing schools from adding armed security guards to protect students.

Do you really think that Sappey's values align with yours?

District 158 deserves a representative whose values actually reflect the community — not one who votes with the radical left and hopes no one notices.

Tina Ayala is that alternative.
