Patric M. Verrone, former president of the Writers Guild of America, West, and an Emmy-winning writer-producer for his work on the dear, departed animated classic FUTURAMA, has announced that he’s writing for the California State Senate. LB, munchman, and about 10,000 other close friends and constituents received the following email on the subject last week:
An Important Day, An Important Cause
I think of the important days in my life. Getting married of course to my incredible partner. The birth of our children. Winning a few Emmys, I guess. And of course, the day we won the writer’s strike. This is one of those days

I am now a candidate for the California State Senate. I wanted you to know about it first – why I am doing it – and I want to ask for your help.
