Cara Mund , 30 , is running for Congress in 2024 .

She is running as a pro-choice Republican who “will not bow” to Donald Trump .

She's running as an independent, entering the race after party primaries were over.

She says she's not seeing anyone reflecting the woman she is today or her values amongst the candidate pool.

Cara Mund is the first Miss America hailing from North Dakota .

She's running for the House of Representatives in the state.

She says she hopes to represent and fight for the women and moderates who comprise what she believes to be a significant portion of the voting bloc.

Mund says the state GOP , which has endorsed veteran and former US State Department employee Alex Balazs , didn't invite her to the first debate.

Mund is trying to hammer home those points to voters as she hits the campaign trail.

“People are electing us because they want us to do a job, and it's crucial that we have someone in there who’s actually going to be an independent thinker,” she says.
