More on John Garamendi
Description from Wikipedia:
John Raymond Garamendi (born January 24, 1945) is a U.S. politician and a member of the Democratic Party. He became the 46th Lieutenant Governor of California on January 8, 2007. He had previously been the California State Insurance Commissioner from 2003 to 2007, having previously been the first occupant of that office from 1991 to 1995. He was the U.S. Deputy Secretary of the Interior from 1995 to 1998.
Garamendi was temporarily a candidate for governor of California in the 2010 election after announcing his candidacy on July 31, 2008. However, he suspended his candidacy on April 29, 2009, to run for Congress in California's 10th congressional district. This seat has been vacated by Ellen Tauscher, who had accepted the position of Undersecretary of State for Arms Control and International Security. The primary election for the seat will be held on September 1 and the runoff election (if needed) will take place on November 3.
