[Sosfbay-discuss] Fwd: Green Wes Rolley helps elect McNerny, defeat Richard Pombo in CA

[JamBoi]

I forwarded this to the national and state media lists:

A very important event that we Greens significantly contributed to in
California was the defeat of archconservative Repub state Senator (CA
11) Richard Pombo.  Wes Rolley was a key Green supporter of the Dem 
Jerry McNerney, the Dem that won yesterday.  Here's two blogs that Wes
does: http://www.refpub.com/PomboWatch/

Wes founded the California Rural Caucus (a caucus that would be great
to start on the national level too!)

Green Solidarity!
