Elections
2013
Harrington ran in a special election for California State Senate District 4. The seat was vacant following Doug LaMalfa's (D) resignation on August 31, 2012. Harrington came in second against Jim Nielsen (R), Dan Levine (no party preference), Jann Reed (no party preference) in the blanket primary on November 6, 2012. Nielsen initially looked to have won the blanket primary outright, but final returns showed him just short of the 50 percent plus one necessary to avoid a general election. Nielsen defeated Harrington in the special election on January 8, 2013.[2][3][4][1][5]
