Remembering Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald
Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald, a seven-term Democratic House member from southern California, died late Saturday (April 21, 2007) of cancer. She was 68. Her chief of staff, Bandele McQueen, said she had been receiving hospice care.
Mrs. Millender-McDonald had recently worked on issues including election reform and opposing the genocide in Sudan.
She is survived by her husband, James McDonald Jr., and five adult children.
Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger has 14 days to set a date for a special election to fill the seat.

I bet repubs will be up to their dirty tricks to try and steal this seat. Though I surmise it may be in a heavily Black populated area, so they may not even bother.
