“Anne is a rising star in the Democratic Party, and I’m pleased that she is returning as a member of our team for the 2014 cycle,” said Guy Cecil, executive director of the DSCC, in a statement.

“We know the challenges that we face this time around and it’s not going to be easy – but battle tested talent like Anne who knows what it takes to build strong campaigns will be one of the reasons we hold the Senate.”
