LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Dick DeVos, a southwestern Michigan businessman and a major Republican donor, has taken a step toward running for governor next year by creating an exploratory committee.
DeVos, the husband of former state GOP Chairwoman Betsy DeVos, on Friday filed paperwork with the secretary of state's office, the Detroit Free Press reported. Creating an exploratory committee is a first step toward forming a full campaign committee.
DeVos, president of Alticor, has said that he may not make a decision on whether to run until the fall.
Is this guy involved with Amway?
I believe his dad was.
fyi...
The founder was Dick DeVos's dad, Rich DeVos.
Alticor is Amway's parent company.
Perfect GOTV effort: have each voter recruit two other voters, who recruits two other voters...
This guy is really old, isn't he? Far older than Reagan was when he announced his intentions.
This makes more sense.
Again, this is the SON of Amway co-founder Rich DeVos.
Yes, he is. The DeVos family has been a huge part of the Michigan GOP for years.
Got it.
