import datetime
import pytz
pacific = pytz.timezone("US/Pacific")
fmt = '%m-%d %H:%M %Z%z'
starter = datetime.datetime(2015, 10, 21, 4, 29)
local = starter.astimezone(pacific)

11,702 PointsIt says: local
isn't the right timezone
I also tried: local = starter.replace(tzinfo=pytz.timezone("US/Pacific"))
I got the result using localize()

local = starter.astimezone(pacific) # original
local = pacific.localize(starter) # corrected
