Jackson For Congress 2026
DeVelle Jackson is 35 and Black, a statesman from Minnesota, and an Independent running for U.S. Congress in Minnesota’s Fifth District. He graduated with distinction, earning a degree in Political Science from the University of Minnesota, and is currently a prospective J.D. candidate. His professional background in building taught him how to coordinate multiple stakeholders, balance competing priorities, and make decisions that came with real consequences. Civic service strengthened the discipline and persistence behind his public life.
Minnesota’s Fifth District deserves more than party maintenance. It deserves a representative with the independence to question what others avoid, the discipline to study what others simplify, and the voice to say clearly what the people already know deserves to be heard.
A stronger voice is not volume. It is command of the question. It is the ability to speak plainly where politics hides behind scripts, to press for details when the establishment expects silence, and to give force and direction to concerns the people have been carrying without representation.
Jackson writes his own message, builds his own case, and enters this race with the independence to speak without being filtered through what a party wants to hear or softened into talking points. His voice is direct, studied, independent, and built to press for answers.
The district needs someone who can carry the argument, speak without a borrowed script, ask the questions politics too often leaves untouched, and press institutions until the people get answers.
This campaign respects the wisdom of age, but it does not believe public life should be trapped under stale authority, inherited scripts, or a new generation of politicians trained only to repeat the old order.
A House seat is renewed every two years, and two years is enough time to ask better questions, expose neglected issues, sharpen the fight, and make the district harder to ignore.
Jackson For Congress 2026
A Stronger Voice.
DeVelle Jackson is running as an Independent because no representative should have to surrender their judgment to a partisan machine.
Jackson’s independent campaign is rooted in a unionist view of public service. Institutions over establishments. The common good over political convenience. The whole people over party politics.
The parties keep fighting for control while too many of the same problems stay put. This campaign brings an independent voice to that fight, grounded in constitutional government, public accountability, the general welfare, and the whole district. One district. One country. One constitutional order.
Jackson For Congress gives Minnesota’s Fifth District a real choice after eight years under the same representation. Not a protest vote. Not a party reflex. An Independent campaign with its own voice and judgment, focused on governing rather than performance, public service rather than celebrity, and confronting the abuses and unanswered problems that partisan politics too often turns into theater.
KEEP THE SEAT. Confront authoritarian government. Put the people before the party. Don’t follow the partisan swing like Bulls and Bears follow the market. SEND JACKSON to Washington.
Minnesota's 5th District
A New Standard.

Campaign Marks
WIN EVERY VOTE™
Keep the Seat. Send Jackson.
Millions of voters think independently, but elections keep forcing them back into the same two familiar choices, red or blue. In Minnesota’s Fifth District, voters deserve more than a default option, a protest option, or a party stand-in. They deserve a serious Independent campaign that can KEEP THE SEAT, compete for the whole district, and offer voters something substantive they can identify with.
Win Every Vote means this campaign is not settling for a share, a statement, or a narrow lane. It is built to hear every voter, compete for every vote, and make the case that Jackson For Congress deserves serious consideration across the whole district.
DON’T MESS WITH MINNESOTA™
Minnesota. Standing United.
Minnesota can stand for itself without standing alone. This campaign is for voters who want representation with grit, union-minded purpose, and the tact to serve the district without being reduced to party command.
THE JACKSON TRIANGLE™
Common Good. General Welfare. Independent.
A political formation squared with the law, built around the common good as the public goal, the general welfare as the constitutional charge, and the Independent, positioned to create angles that break the party trap without breaking faith with the whole people.
