Kimberly Klacik is an American politician who is the Republican nominee for Maryland’s 7th congressional district. Klacik’s interest in Maryland’s seventh congressional seat came after the death of incumbent Elijah Cummings. In the special election held in April 2020, Kimberly lost to Democratic candidate Kweisi Mfume.
Klacik has proven to be a valued member of the Republican Party and the Trump campaign. President Trump and Kimberly have consistently criticized Democratic leadership in Baltimore, blaming the leaders for the city’s high crime rate and blight. Kimberly was a speaker at the Republican National Convention in August 2020.
Kimberly’s family consists of her husband Jeffrey Thomas Klacik and their daughter.
Kimberly and her white husband, Jeffrey Thomas Klacik, were married on May 5, 2013. The ceremony and reception were held at Swan Harbor Farm in Maryland.
Klacik has largely kept her family out of the spotlight, but there are several photos of her husband and daughter on Instagram. In an Aug. 31 Instagram post from her daughter, Kimberly expressed joy and a little sadness that her daughter was heading to her first day of school. “Where has the time gone?” she wrote. “I just cried a little.”
Kimberly’s family is her source of comfort when the going gets tough. Politics can be frustrating and exhausting, but she always finds solace in the arms of her husband and her daughter. On August 29, 2020, she attached the following caption along with an Instagram photo:
“Mommy and daddy promised a day at the beach. It’s a little cloudy, but we made it. The family had definitely taken a back seat. When people say I opportunistically run for office, Mom and Dad just promised a day at the beach. It’s a little cloudy, but we made it.”
Kimberly benefited from her parents’ support after dropping out of college due to bullying
Kimberly Nicole Klacik was born on January 19, 1982 in Accokeek, Maryland. She attended Bowie State University, but had a very difficult time in school. She suffered from a medical condition called alopecia which caused her hair to fall out. Her condition made her an easy target for bullies.
Klacik’s parents agreed with Kimberly’s decision to drop out of school due to persistent bullying. They supported her and gave her a platform to succeed. Now the college dropout is running from congress in Maryland.
Unfortunately, Kimberly’s father passed away in February 2019. On August 26, she posted a photo of him along with the caption, “On February 21, 2019 I lost my biggest fan, my dad. Today is his birthday. I miss him so much and I pray he’s proud.”
