Daniel Edward Lungren (born September 22, 1946) is an American lawyer, lobbyist, and former politician. A native of Long Beach, California, his political career began when he was elected to the United States House of Representatives as a Republican, representing the Long Beach area from 1979 to 1989. He then served as attorney general of California from 1991 to 1999, and ran unsuccessfully for governor of California in 1998, losing to Democrat Gray Davis.
In 2005, he returned to Congress, representing California's 3rd congressional district, which covered most of Sacramento County, portions of Solano County, as well as all of Alpine County, Amador County and Calaveras County. In 2012, his seat was redistricted, and he sought re-election in California's 7th congressional district, losing to Democrat Ami Bera.
