Former Lincoln Councilman named to Democrats' post

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A former Lincoln city councilman has been named executive director of the Nebraska Democratic Party.

In addition to his time on the council, Dan Marvin has served as executive director of the West Haymarket Joint Public Agency for the Pinnacle Bank Arena project.

Party chairman Vince Powers says that "with Dan Marvin, the Nebraska Democratic Party will have a leader who will be an aggressive advocate for our candidates, while holding the Republican ticket accountable as we approach the 2014 elections."

Marvin has owned and operated Marvin Investment Management Co. since 1993.

Marvin is replacing Jim Rogers, who left the party post to run the Senate campaign of Democrat David Domina.
