Former Emhoff aide launches campaign for Congress in Republican stronghold of El Paso County

Democrat Jessica Killin served as chief of staff of Doug Emhoff when he was the Second Gentleman of the United States. She faces an uphill climb in a run for Congress for the 5th Congressional District.

Jessica Killin has worked in the White House, Congress and the U.S. Army. Now she’s returned home to Colorado Springs and is running for office.

Killin officially launched her campaign on Tuesday for the Democratic nomination for the 5th Congressional District, a seat currently held by freshman Republican Jeff Crank.
