Long Beach Councilwoman Bonnie Lowenthal will launch the final stage of her campaign for the 54th Assembly District seat with an open house celebration Saturday at her campaign headquarters.
The campaign office is located at 2115 Bellflower Blvd. in Long Beach, and the reception is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 12 noon.
"I want our campaign headquarters to be a hub of activity and excitement as we work together toward victory in November," Lowenthal said.
Lowenthal won the June 3 primary election, putting her on the Nov. 4 general-election ballot opposite Republican and Libertarian candidates.
She is seeking the Assembly seat currently held by Betty Karnette, who is not running for re-election because of term limits.
The 54th Assembly District includes most of Long Beach, Signal Hill, a portion of San Pedro, Catalina Island and the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
