Name: Keiko Fujimori
Gender: Female
Age and DOB: May 25, 1975 (age 46 as of November 2021, 47 in January 2023)
Hometown: Colorado Springs, CO

Background: Keiko Fujimori was born in the Broadmoor neighborhood of Colorado Springs to a wealthy Japanese-American family. Her father was the president of UC Colorado Springs. Keiko attended private schools and had a good childhood. She earned her bachelor's degree in Business Administration at Boston University and her master's degree at Columbia University. She moved to Mead in 2005 and was elected to the State House the following year. Fujimori is a mother of two and enjoys cooking.

Political Record: Keiko Fujimori is far-right politician who fully supports Donald Trump (and occasionally criticizes him from the right). She believes the 2020 election was rigged, and while she doesn't want Trump to be reinstated on principle, she thinks it would be "very good" for the country. Fujimori also says the 2020 riots made her convinced that a "heavy hand" is needed to combat crime. Staunchly anti-abortion, she believes that rape victims should keep their babies. She was widely chastised for defending the 2015 Planned Parenthood shooter in Colorado Springs, referring to him as a "warrior for the unborn." She later walked back that comment.

Visual Description: 5'2", black hair, brown eyes

Additional Information: Mrs. Fujimori has a large following among young right-wing men, who refer to her as "Keiko-chan" and consider her a "girlboss."

Good, but I don't think you'll need to start off negative, because I plan on having you having a modest lead in the opening polls. Probably something like 2 points ahead of Warzinger and 6 points ahead of Fujimori.

So why is some random YouTuber polling 6 points ahead of a sitting state representative?
