CIVN Profiles Green Party Candidate for Governor of California

At the California Independent Voter Network, Chris Hinyub continues his series of articles profiling the Golden State's third party and independent candidates for governor. In the first, he covered Libertarian hopeful Dale Ogden. This week, he considers the candidacy of Laura Wells, who is running under the Green Party banner:

Laura Wells is no stranger to the demands of leadership. During her tenure in numerous county and state-level leadership positions, and her 2002 and 2006 State Controller campaign bids, she personally experienced the state's bipartisan machinations. From these experiences, she has composed a list of priorities to get California out of debt and protect taxpayer-funded services.

Candidate Wells earned a Masters of Education at Antioch University. Her academic credentials have given her a set of professional skills in finance, business analysis, computer programming, and managing complex financial systems. She has called California her home for over 30 years and believes firmly in the integral role small businesses play in driving California's economy.
