LOS ANGELES - March 14, 2006 - Marcy Winograd, longtime Democratic Party activist, announced today she will challenge incumbent Jane Harman for the 36th Congressional district seat in California's June 6 primary.

"My campaign is building on a groundswell of dissatisfaction with the Iraq war and the Bush administration's policies, which continue to remove the civil liberties of American citizens," Winograd said. "In just the few weeks since I decided to run, I've received an outpouring of public support and political endorsements."

ELECTION DAY, November 8, 2005, California voters go to the polls today to vote in a special election called by a widely unpopular governor. The election, designed as end run around the state House and Senate, was neither asked for nor wanted by most voters. The election now seen as a referendum on the current governor whose approval ratings have hit an all time low of 32%, Progressives are urging a NO vote on all of the governor's sponsored propositions.

Every proposition pushed by Gov. Schwarzenegger and his corporate allies has been rejected by California voters. In fact all propositions 73 through 80 have been given a NO vote. Independent Progressive voters, Greens, and left of center Democrats are celebrating and claiming victory in what many see as a referendum against the Governor and his party.

Progressives celebrate new leadership. Los Angeles, a longtime conservative stronghold, now has one of the most progressive mayors and city councils in the nation. This new leadership inherits a city in transition, a city whose services are at the breaking point, struggling to keep pace with the demands of unrestrained growth. A city still facing the deeply rooted problems that it has become famous for; racial tensions, affordable housing, traffic gridlock and air pollution. But for now the honeymoon is in full swing and for those who want to chart a new path for Los Angeles perhaps a door has opened.

The list of evidence is growing that the US election was anything but a fair vote. Who could possibly think that all of these voting problems are just a minor aberation? The long lines are always in Democratic counties, that the computer "glitches" always favor Bush, and the new e-machines were made by a Bush "Pioneer" (top donor) that pledged to deliver for Bush. Funny how Diebold makes bank machines which print paper receipts millions of times daily, but they couldn't get the printer to work in the voting machines.
