Here's the online version of his announcement. You can also view a version he does in Spanish. And here's the press release, which includes the complete text of his remarks, a list of those who joined him onstage and a list of California endorsements. Gov. Richardson made the live announcement this morning at the historic Biltmore Hotel in Los Angeles, in the same room where John F. Kennedy accepted the Democratic nomination in 1960. AP video has a short clip of the announcement.
The campaign has also launched its upgraded website and blog with all sorts of new organizing gizmos and lots of video. Check it out.
