Ventura, CA-- There are now two democrats in the primary race for the 35th District Assembly.

Santa Barbara City Councilman Das Williams formally announced his candidacy on Monday morning in Ventura and in Santa Barabara.

Williams, who is no stranger to politics believes his time is now "because the decisions being made in Sacramento are putting our state and region in dire straits."

Also running on the democratic ticket is Susan Jordan, wife of current 35th Assemblyman Pedro Nava. Term limits prevent Jordan's husband, Pedro Nava from running for the same seat.
.
Williams says he wants to fight for education, the environment and labor. He also says he wants to stop the gridlock in Sacramento.

The winner of the June primary in 2010 will likely run against former Santa Barbara County Supervisor Mike Stoker. The republican announced his candidacy in May.
