Marcy Winograd, Democratic candidate who ran against Jane Harman, Congressional Representative from Torrance, and who generated 30 percent of the vote, endorsed Byron De Lear, Green Party candidate running in the 28th District against Howard Berman.
"This is going to change the demographics of the campaign. Having a major Democratic challenger and outstanding activist like Marcy Winograd endorse a Green is making major political history, said Eugene Hernandez, of Latinos for De Lear.
"What this means is that thousands upon thousands of Democratic voters who are anti-war, progressive and for change will switch their vote from Howard Berman to Byron De Lear. This is part of the Joe Lieberman effect and also due to the public's distrust of Congress, said Hernandez. Polls after polls show that the American public are fed up with Congress. They have failed to pass significant legislation on spying, immigration, ending the war and the economy.This translate into succes for sending the First Green to Congress."
