Reed set to kick off campaign, open office

Posted at 3:57 PM on October 15, 2009 by Tim Pugmire

Dr. Maureen Reed plans to "officially" kick off her 6th district congressional campaign Saturday.

The DFL candidate has an event scheduled at her campaign office in Anoka, beginning at 11:00 a.m. A media advisory sent out today says "Reed will discuss her campaign to defeat (incumbent Republican Congresswoman Michele) Bachmann and bring common sense solutions to Washington."

Reed announced back in May that she was filing paperwork with the Federal Election Commission to run for Congress.

State Sen, Tarryl Clark, DFL-St. Cloud, is also seeking the DFL endorsement to run in the 6th district. Only Clark is pledging to abide by that endorsement.
