Actor goes to work for the candidate of House in California.

 Sean Astin has helped to save the Earth of the environment in the "The Lord of the rings" series. But if the actor who plays good-hearted "Sam" in the trilogy to the big screen can save a candidate of the Congress for the first time in California?

ASTIN is serving as campaign manager for the entertainment industry Directorate Daniel h. Adler, who is one of the 16 candidates in a special election week next in the District of the coastal 36th Congress along the western edge of the County of Los Angeles...

Adler is campaigning outsider against rivals more known and better-funded, including the city of Los Angeles Advisor Janice Hahn and Secretary of State of California Deborah Bowen.

In a release Monday, Astin says that his longtime friend is the alternative straight-talking to career politicians.
