Betty McCollum backs Ciresi

DFL Rep. Betty McCollum is backing Mike Ciresi for Senate. In a letter, McCollum writes:

"Your experience, professional record of accomplishment and proven commitment to fight for justice is needed more than ever in Washington to heal the damage done to our democracy by the White House."

A press release says McCollum and Ciresi will make their first campaign appearance together at the Cinco de Mayo parade in St. Paul. Ciresi and Al Franken are seeking the DFL endorsement for U.S. Senate. GOP Sen. Norm Coleman is running for reelection.
