Daniel Haro, a political strategist from Sacramento who grew up in the San Fernando Valley, has announced his candidacy for city councilmember to represent Long Beach’s 3rd district. “The 3rd district needs a candidate who is not part of the liberal, elite status quo at City Hall that include City Councilwomen Suja Lowenthal and Gerri Shipske [sic] who have made a mess,” reads a press release issued by Haro’s chief of staff, Jeffrey Benson. “Daniel is the only true conservative in the race running for the first time.” Haro’s campaign video may be viewed at youtube.com/watch?v=cniZmixth_Q .
