187 Days until Election Day

MORNING UPDATE:

U.P. TOUR CONTINUES: The Political and Candidate & Party Assistance teams were on the road again yesterday on the UP "Unity Road Show" for our second stop in Marquette and third in White Pine . We had a great group of local party people from Marquette, Alger, and Delta counties along with the 1st district Chairman. Special thanks to Joel Westrom for his help in putting the Marquette event together. Our third stop in the western UP for Gogebic, Ontonagon, and Houghton had our largest UP crowd yet. Thank you to Kirk Schott for his help in putting the event together.

DILLON RECALL PETITIONS FILED…11,384 validated signatures filed (15,000+ signed)…law requires the signatures of 8,724 registered voters from within a state representative district. Dillon was the chief architect of the Granholm-Democrat $1.4 billion tax increase on Michigan families and businesses.

CITIZENS TAXPAYERS SPEAK UP…recalls are democracy in action. It’s frustrated voters taking matters into their own hands. The Democrats raised taxes when they had a surplus. NO cuts, NO reforms. The grassroots do matter!

REPUBLICANS SHOOTING FOR ANTI-TAX MAJORITY…this is a good indication of mood taxpayers and voters…let your voices be heard.

McCAIN IN MICHIGAN…Senator McCain will be in Michigan for a fundraiser and Town Hall meeting next week. Details below…join us where you can.
