Laura Wells made her official announcement of her candidacy yesterday in Sacramento.  It is a first step down a long road, but she has proven in past elections for Controller that she can attract votes far in excess of the number of registered Greens.

Her new web site is http://2010.laurawells.org/.

I was particularly interested in her views on the water policy issues that, despite all of the post stage show hype, did not get resolved in the past legislative session.

That, and the fact that Laura is willing to take on Prop 13 directly separates her from the rest of the so called progressive candidates.
