I had previously only known of Marianne Williamson as a spiritual writer. And, when I Googled her name after reading Alan Durning’s announcement, I saw that she was running for Congress. However, after more Googling, I see that she lost the bid (this time…).

However, the good conversation that she started continues:

…It seems that the Town Hall website currently has a broken link to Marianne’s website. But, this one works:
