Bush nominates Democrat to BOG

Posted in BOG, Politics, postal by brian on the August 7th, 2006

George Bush finally got around to filling one of the Democratic vacancies on the USPS Board of Governors last week, nominating former Democratic Congressman James H. Bilbray of Nevada to the seat formerly held by John Walsh, who resigned last year amid charges he misused postal funds.

Bilbray, a Las Vegas native, was elected to Congress in 1986, and served four terms until losing the seat in the 1996 election.
