FRANKFORT – The Mongiardo for U.S. Senate campaign announced today that Beshear 2007 Campaign Field Director Richard “Dick” Prelopski and Deputy Field Director Floyd Seals have joined the Mongiardo Campaign as Field Director and Deputy Field Director respectively to set up Mongiardo’s statewide field operation.

“Dick and Floyd worked tirelessly successfully organizing the state for Governor Beshear and I during our 2007 campaign. Building on our winning 2007 campaign, we are eager to get to work building an even stronger grassroots organization to help get our message out that Kentucky needs a Senator who will stand up for Kentucky’s working families,” said Mongiardo.

“I’ve worked with Governor Beshear for over 25 years and we’ve been friends for even longer. I’m grateful that he’s given his blessing to my new position working for Daniel and I’m looking forward to reaching out to Kentucky voters on behalf of electing Daniel Mongiardo as our next United States Senator ,” said Prelopski.
