[WA] PPA State Director Lee Rousso Running for Governor

January 14th, 2008

Lee Rousso, attorney and Poker Players Alliance state director for Washington State, will announce that he’s running for governor at 2 p.m. PT on Seattle’s 710 KIRO radio station.

Rousso is the attorney who’s fighting Washington State’s law that makes it a felony to play online poker there. Rousso’s legal challenge is meeting stiff resistance by state attorneys, but he told Card Player that if it can’t be changed through legal means, “The Plan B is to get it changed politically.”

He will run as a Democrat.
