Mark Grannis

Mark Grannis has lived in Chevy Chase, Maryland since 1991. He practices law in downtown Washington, D.C. in the firm of Wiltshire &amp; Grannis LLP, a firm he started with two other partners in 1998. Since 2006, he has also co-written and edited a blog called Reasonable Minds. He has a degree in Government and Economics from Georgetown University, and a law degree from the University of Michigan.

His campaign website says he is running because, "in the fall of 2008, it became blindingly obvious that our 'leaders' in Congress and the White House were almost all one-trick ponies whose solution to every economic problem was to waste money on a pointless response ."
