Carly Fiorina formally announced she’s running for U.S. Senate in California a couple days ago.

Fiorina faces Assemblyman Chuck DeVore (R-Irvine) for the Republican nomination.

“I’m a lifelong registered Republican but I haven’t always voted,” she said Thursday during an event in Sacramento. “And I will provide no excuse for it. You know, people die for the right to vote. And there are many, many Californians and Americans who exercise that civic duty on a regular basis. I didn’t. Shame on me.”

Will you remember to vote as a Senator? If you’re not committed enough to the political process that you vote, then why run for office? where she’s only voted 5 times in the last 18 elections. Was she just trying to avoid jury duty?

I suppose her competition, the incumbent Barbara Boxer really isn’t all that accomplished either for a 4-term, 18 year member of the Senate.

“Barbara Boxer has been a senator for almost 18 years. During that time, she’s only gotten three laws enacted – naming a river in Virginia, a courthouse in Fresno, and bringing bridge repair money to the Bay Area, where she is from.  One piece of real work in 18 years isn’t much of a track record.”

Like Carly said “That’s not good enough for California,” but neither is someone who “was fired by her last employer after taking $100 million for herself,” per John Burton, California Democratic Party chairman.
