Former State Treasurer Backs Teddy King for Piedmont Council Seat

Former State Treasurer Phil Angelides has backed Teddy King’s candidacy for a seat on the Piedmont City Council in the Feb. 4 municipal election, according to a press release from the King campaign.

“I have known Teddy King for over 20 years," Angelides said in a statement Monday. "She is a smart, effective public servant who will represent the residents well.  She will make an outstanding leader on the Piedmont City Council.”  

Angelides is the second official who was elected state-wide to endorse King. She was endorsed by California Controller John Chiang in December.
