National Democratic Strategist Bill Romjue Joins Romanoff Campaign

Andrew Romanoff, Democratic candidate for the U.S. Senate, today announced that top veteran Democratic strategist Bill Romjue has joined the Romanoff team as campaign manager.

“I am delighted to put a talented leader like Bill Romjue at the top of our team. I have enormous respect for his service to our country and his skill as a campaign manager," Romanoff said. "Bill shares my determination to fight for the families of Colorado, who have been forgotten by too many federal officials. Bill believes, as I do, that the choice of our next U.S. Senator should rest not with the power brokers in Washington or on Wall Street but with the people of Colorado."

Romjue brings more than 30 years of political experience to the table. He has played key roles in a host of national campaigns, including the presidential runs of both Jimmy Carter and Gary Hart. Most recently, Romjue was a senior adviser to Joe Biden during his 2008 presidential campaign. He also served as chief of staff to House Majority Leader Dick Gephardt from 1984 to 1988. Prior to his political career, Romjue served in the U.S. Army and earned a Bronze Star during the Vietnam War.

"I am as enthusiastic as I have ever been about any race in America. This campaign is about the future of our country, and Andrew Romanoff is the best possible Coloradan to lead us forward," Romjue said. "Andrew has spent nearly a decade standing up to powerful special interests and fighting tooth and nail for his constituents. That's exactly the kind of leadership we need in the U.S. Senate today."

Romjue will lead a growing team on the Romanoff campaign. He joins more than 200 elected officials and thousands of supporters across the state who are backing Romanoff’s bid for the U.S. Senate.
