Representative Jane Harman Ready to Kick Off 2010 Congressional Re-Election Campaign in Los Angeles

Representative Jane Harman is my current representative in the House, and as the election season begins, I will be following her exploits and adventures on this blog. While I did not vote for Ms. Harman in the last election cycle, I will still aggregate any interesting articles about as a way to foster a discussion about whether she has been a good representative in the last term and whether she should be retained.

This blog gets a lot of national and international readers, so hopefully these local articles about Rep. Harman will not alienate those readers.

Harman Gears Up for Re-Election Campaign

LOS ANGELES, March 23, 2010 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fresh from participating in the historic vote supporting President Obama's healthcare reform legislation, Congresswoman Jane Harman (D-36) has begun the communications and outreach phase of her re-election campaign.

As Representative Harman was working towards Congressional support of the legislation, the Democratic Party of Los Angeles showed its support with 72% of the delegates backing her re-election as the Officially Endorsed candidate of the Democratic Party.

Harman adds this endorsement to other recent endorsements by the Sierra Club, EMILY's List, the Los Angeles County Federation of Labor and the Human Rights Campaign.

Harman also announced that she has retained Harvey Englander, managing partner of Englander Knabe & Allen to serve as lead consultant for her re-election campaign.

"Harvey Englander and his team have a consistent record of running effective political campaigns using a combination of tried and true strategies and tactics along with new, cutting edge techniques. We look forward to running a positive campaign focusing on job creation and economic growth; strong support for the environment; a robust national defense and aerospace industrial base; protecting the rights of women and seniors; and ensuring educational opportunities for every child in the 36th Congressional District," Harman stated.

"I am excited about the upcoming campaign. I love being home in the District and meeting with voters," she concluded.
