I will not run for Congress, for a second time, against Loretta Sanchez, (CA. 47^th District).

This is a belated Thank You to the people that voted for me in 2008, (6,274, = 5.1%). 

I will run for State Treasurer in 2010 as an American Independent Party candidate.  The election code requires minor parties to run candidates for state wide office.

My official State Treasurer’s web site will be www.RobertLauten.com
