- Share via
SACRAMENTO — Former state Democratic Party Chairman Phil Angelides announced Wednesday that he will run for state treasurer this year.
Angelides, 40, of Sacramento, is expected to face state Sen. David A. Roberti (D-Van Nuys), the first legislator to be forced out of office by term limits, in what could be a costly Democratic primary.
A housing developer who once was an Assembly administrative aide, Angelides said he plans to travel the state from border to border in the next 60 days to outline his program.
He is seeking to succeed Kathleen Brown, who is expected to run for governor.
