Rico Oller To Run for John Doolittle's Congressional Seat
Rico Oller says he’ll move to Placer County to change his home address to the 4th
Congressional District so he can run in the Republican primary election to
replace retiring John Doolittle. Oller has been out of politics since
losing a close race to current Third Congressional District Representative Dan
Lungren in the 2004 primary. Amador
County is in the Third
District. Oller, 49, has lived in the same San Andreas house for 20 years and he is the owner of a large construction business and a
ranch in Calaveras
County. Oller
already owns business property in Placerville
and he and his wife have been shopping for a house in Placer County.
Oller served two terms in the Assembly between 1996
and 2000, as well as one term in the Senate.
