Salazar to second Obama's nomination

By Politicker Staff

U.S. Sen. Ken Salazar (D-Colo.) will be one of three Democrats to second the presidential nomination of U.S. Sen. Barack Obama (D-Ill.) at the Democratic National Convention Thursday, the event's organizers said today.

Salazar will second the nomination along with U.S. Reps. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Fla.) and Artur Davis (D-Ala.), after Iraq War veteran Michael Wilson formally nominates the Illinois senator, the DNC said in a release Wednesday.

"If a special election were to be held to replace Congressman Salazar . . . that is a race we could win. That district is very competitive. We would field a great candidate, and we would run a campaign we could win in the 3rd District."  - State Republican Party Chairman Dick Wadhams on his party's ability to win a special election in the state's Third Congressional District should Barack Obama nominate U.S. Rep. John Salazar (D) for Secretary of Agriculture.
