Former State legislator Shelley Madore will be kicking off her campaign for the DFL endorsement to run against John Kline in the 2010 Congressional race to represent Congressional District 2 on Monday, 18 January 2005. A press release on the announcement event went out Wednesday and several sites including MinnPost immediately released the news.
The campaign has announced the kick-off event on facebook as well as through the more traditional channels.
DFL voters will caucus around the state on Tuesday, February 2nd, and residents of the 2nd District are likely glad to have fewer choices for Congress than are presently seeking their endorsement for the Governor's race.
“Minnesota deserves leadership that puts us first,” said Madore. “We need a strong leader who will work with other members of Congress to bring projects back to our district. It’s important that you have someone who will show up and talk with you about your priorities and needs. And, when times are tough, it matters that you have someone who understands what it is like to live here and struggle to keep your family afloat.That brings the count on the DFL side to two, since small-business owner Dan Powers has been officially in the race since late 2009. There appear to be neither challengers on the GOP side to Kline's incumbency, nor any independent candidates in the race thus far.
I am that leader and when you elect me to serve you in Washington, I will fight to bring jobs and economic security back to families here in Minnesota."
