Arguing that California needs a new type of representation in the nation's capital, Silicon Valley executive Lexi Reese announced Thursday that she is running for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by retiring Sen. Dianne Feinstein.
"More of the same is not going to get us different outcomes and we need better outcomes," said Reese, 48. "The same type of seasoned politicians taking the same approach, which feels to me and a lot of the people that I speak with like really bad reality TV fights that do nothing to help Californian or American families. That is not going to get us different results."
Reese, a Democrat who previously worked at Google, Facebook, American Express and other companies, has never run for office. She joins a crowded field vying for Feinstein's seat next year.
