Newly elected Democrat John Garamendi was sworn in as a member of the House of Representatives today.  The former Deputy Interior Secretary and longtime California politico now represents California’s 10th Congressional district, with district offices in Walnut Creek and Antioch.  On Tuesday Garamendi, who most recently served as the state’s Lieutenant Governor, won a special election to succeed Ellen Tauscher, now Under Secretary of State for Arms Control and International Security in the Obama administration.  Garamendi’s swearing in returns the California House delegation to its full complement of 53 members, with 34 Democrats and 19 Republicans.
