We know times are tough but so are Coloradans. As we look back, our work is not done, but we have done more with less and are making clear progress. "

Christine Scanlan to fill Dan Gibbs' seat in HD 56

When Dan Gibbs accepted his new position as State Senator, he left an empty seat in House District 56. Enter Christine Scanlan. According to Lory Pounder at the Vail Daily:

FRISCO, Colorado — Christine Scanlan gave her first political speech Wednesday evening, shortly after the Democratic vacancy committee appointed her to fill the Colorado House of Representatives seat Dan Gibbs recently vacated as he became a state senator.

She will fill out the remainder of Gibbs' term representing Eagle, Summit and Lake counties, and plans to run for the seat in the November election.

“Dan has set the right expectation for the job, and I’ll work hard to rise to that challenge,” said Scanlan, who is the senior vice president and chief operating officer of The Keystone Center and Keystone Science School, and president of the Summit School District Board of Education.
