Earlier in the week, in the aftermath of Caroline Kennedy's expressing interest in a Senate seat, we asked you who the first presidential daughter to run for office was.
The answer: Maureen Reagan, daughter of Ronald, who sought the Republican nomination for the Senate from California in 1982. She lost to Pete Wilson, who went on to win the seat vacated by S.I. Hayakawa (R).
More important, the first correct responder: Adam Larsen of Byron, Ill. The prize: his state's U.S. Senate seat!
Congratulations Adam. Patrick Fitzgerald will be calling you shortly.
