Colorado State Senate, District 15
LOVELAND -- Rich Ball, fourth generation Lovelander and long time attorney, will announce his run for State Senate District 15 on Friday October 16 at 1:00 at Loveland City Hall, Foote Lagoon. Rich has been a life long Democrat but has never run for office. He retired from the law practice in 2007 after 35 years.
"In good conscience I could just not sit on the sidelines and watch any longer. Our county needs inclusive, problem solving, collaborative representation at the state Capitol. We have real problems, and we need someone who will listen to all our residents and use leadership to create solutions," said Rich.
Rich's father Judge Conrad Ball served the County for nearly 20 years as District Judge.
Rich will be surrounded by his family and supporters, including local lawyer Rodger Clark, State Senate President Brandon Shaffer, former State Senate President Stan Matsunaka, and former State Rep. Bill Kaufman.
Rich attended the University of Colorado, with a Political Science degree and C.U. Law School. He has been active in civic affairs serving as President of Habitat for Humanity, Loveland Rotary Club and the Larimer County Bar Association. He currently serves on the boards of Pathways Hospice and the Fort Collins Symphony. Rich urges you to get involved with his campaign. His web site is www.richball2010.com.
