Margaret Sullivan - Political Activism

Political Activism

In 2007, Sullivan was part of "The Lincoln Brigade", a Democratic Party task force to kill the California Presidential Electoral College Reform Initiative, a proposed ballot measure that would have appeared on the June 2008 California ballot. The Republican sponsored measure, if passed, would have changed the way California allocates its presidential electoral votes in time for the 2008 presidential election.

She contributed and raised money for the Hillary Clinton for President campaign.

Sullivan is also the co-chair of the steering committee of the No on Proposition 23 campaign, an effort to save California's clean energy and air pollution control standards.
