The State - News from Sept. 6, 1989

Assemblyman Gary A. Condit (D-Ceres) will get a seat on the House Agriculture Committee if he wins a Sept. 12 special election for a vacant congressional seat, House Majority Leader Richard A. Gebhardt (D-Mo.) said in Fresno. San Joaquin Valley farm interests traditionally have had a seat on the powerful committee. Condit is running against several Republicans and a Libertarian for the seat vacated last May by Democrat Tony Coelho, who resigned when questions were raised about his ethics in business dealings.
