Small Business Owner Craig Huey Shocks Media and Career Politicians in Race for California's 36th Congressional District

TORRANCE, Calif., May 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, the congressional campaign for Republican Craig Huey shattered conventional wisdom with Huey coming in second in a crowded 16-candidate race many pundits and the media believed was destined to be two powerful Democrats facing each other in July.

This major upset puts small business owner Huey in a run-off election July 12 with Los Angeles City Councilwoman and career politician Janice Hahn.

The campaign credits its victory to Huey's real-world experience in creating hundreds of jobs for his employees and business clients and his economic message that reverberated universally with Republicans, Democrats and Independents. This message included:

• Stopping the out-of-control government spending.
• Stopping the $1.6 trillion deficit and $14.3 trillion national debt.
• Creating new jobs in the private sector.
• Stopping the rising prices created by bad government policy.

In his victory announcement to his supporters, Huey said, "My message of economic sanity is going to be heard nationwide... Californians are finally getting it!"

Craig's commonsense approach is at odds with the fantasy economics of Janice Hahn.

Huey's latest television commercial titled "Lemonade Stand" focuses on the burden of the $14.3 trillion national debt on future generations as well as fiscal irresponsibility in Washington. You can watch the commercial HERE.
