Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe Launches Re-Election Campaign Website

LOS ANGELES, June 29, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Los Angeles County Supervisor Don Knabe announced today the launch of his campaign website, www.knabe2012.com.

Supervisor Knabe is seeking his 5^th and final term representing the people of the 4^th district. "I have been fortunate to represent the citizens of the 4^th district and the people of Los Angeles County," said Knabe. "We've been able to accomplish a lot of good things together, but we still have a lot of work to do. I want people to visit Knabe2012.com not just to see the good we've done but also to see the issues we face and my plans to address those issues."

The website touts many of Supervisor Knabe's most significant achievements such as his much-lauded "Safe Surrender" program that has saved the lives of 86 newborns since its inception. Knabe2012.com also examines the key issues facing LA County and the 4^th District including Jobs and the Economy, Public Safety, and Transportation. "We're going through some tough times and we have tough decisions ahead of us to make sure that our citizens have good jobs, safe neighborhoods, and access to the services the County has committed to provide. I think Knabe2012.com shows how steadfastly I've worked for the people of this district and the people of Los Angeles and I would be honored to continue that service."

Long Beach City Councilman Gary DeLong had this to say, "We've been lucky to have Don Knabe representing us in LA County. He's a man whose door is always open. Don is a true public servant and we're thankful he's agreed to continue serving the people of this area."

Despite his strong support in the 4^th District, Supervisor Knabe insists he is not taking anything for granted. "That's why we're getting Knabe2012.com going now, so that people know I'm ready to tackle the issues facing LA County and that I intend to continue to serve the people of the 4^th District."

The 4^th District stretches from Marina Del Rey through Palos Verdes to Long Beach and extends east to Diamond Bar. The 4^th also includes Catalina Island and San Clemente Island.
