Yesterday Milwaukee County Supervisor Marina Dimitrijevic, who represents the 4th District, announced her endorsement of Chris Larson’s candidacy for the State Senate in the 7th District:
Marina Dimitrijevic, Milwaukee County Supervisor for the 4th District, announced a strong endorsement of fellow Supervisor Chris Larson. Larson is running in the Democratic Primary race for the State Senate seat covering much of Dimitrijevic’s district. She also announced a fundraiser at her home today, June 28th 2010.
“As Chris’ colleague on the County Board, I’ve come to know him as a true leader, and a strong partner in fighting for our neighborhoods,” said Dimitrijevic. “The lack of representation for our district in Madison is apparent to many Democrats. Almost any key issue is lacking a voice: the environment, green collar jobs, and action on developing transit. This is why it is with full confidence that I am supporting Chris Larson in his run for State Senate. Chris has fought hard to revitalize the Hoan Bridge with me, and keep this community in-step with other major metro-areas by ushering in modern transit. He serves Southeast Wisconsin faithfully, and I hope my community joins me in supporting him on September 14th.”
This endorsement isn’t a surprise, given the close working relationship Supervisors Larson and Dimitrijevic seem to have, but it will be really interesting to see if any other Democratic elected officials in Milwaukee County publicly support Chris Larson’s campaign to unseat Sen. Jeff Plale.
