County GOP chair runs for supervisor By Kevin Shopshire DAILY PRESS & ARGUS Hamburg Township resident Cindy Pine has thrown down the gauntlet in announcing late Monday her intention to run for Hamburg Township supervisor. Pine, the chair of the Livingston County Republican Committee since November 2002, said incumbent Howard Dillman is not doing the job he was elected to do by making the position part time and hiring a deputy supervisor, and she is calling for new leadership in the township. "I'm running to be a full-time supervisor who will serve the township residents," she said. "That's in stark...

Right to Life wants to stop Schwarz Abortion rights candidate vies for 7th District By Stacey Range Lansing State Journal Six Republicans are hustling to replace retiring U.S. Rep. Nick Smith, but an early endorsement by the ever-powerful Right to Life of Michigan could stop several anti-abortion candidates in their tracks. The reason: Right to Life wants to block the nomination of former state Sen. Joe Schwarz of Battle Creek, the only abortion rights GOP candidate. "We want to make sure the nomination goes to someone who supports us," said Larry Galmish, director of the Right to Life political action...

Journalists, political pundits and other Hysteric Left activists are desperately trying to spin some cosmic significance out of Sunday's Spanish elections. The "conventional wisdom" is that the Spanish Election results are some sort of significant defeat for President Bush and the War on Terror. As usual the "News Media's" thinking is neither conventional nor wise. What all the various activists miss is the reality of American Exceptionalism. As much as the International Political Left hates, and try's to deny, the reality is the USA operates on a completely different political level then the rest of the world. On Sunday, the...

The reason for my apology was that throughout this primary season we have been hearing about the record turnout of voters participating in Democrat caucuses and primaries. I bought the lie. The truth is that, except for Iowa and New Hampshire, there has not been any sort of record turnout for the Democrats. Even in New Hampshire the vote was far less than what the Republicans had when they last had a contested primary in 2000. The Democrats this year had 219,787 votes in their primary. The GOP in 2000 had 239,523 votes. That 20,000 difference is major in a...

The "objective news media" supposed 9-11 surviors protesting Bush's ads are actually anti-war stooges financed by John Kerry's wife. Please take a moment and vist the New York Times, Washington Post, MSNBC, CBS, NBC and ABC etc to email the Omsbudsman, the Publisher, the News Editor and demand to know why they allowed clearly partisan advocates of Kerry's Presidential Campaign were presented on their "News" programs with no reference to their ties to the Kerry camp. We absolutely must demand the "News Media" be held accountable for their free advertising for the Kerry camp.

Dems may challenge Rogers By Dan Meisler DAILY PRESS & ARGUS Two Democrats are considering campaigns against U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Brighton, saying his close ties with President George W. Bush and strong poll numbers for Democrats nationally make Rogers vulnerable. "The ties to the Bush administration are all problems for our congressman this year," said Kathy Carney, Livingston County chair of the Democratic Party's 8th Congressional District. "There's a whole grass-roots organization of people who are very unhappy with what's going on in Washington." The two possible candidates are Bob Alexander, 59, a longtime political activist who is currently...

Conservatives should write in Tom Tancredo in the primary ballot to demonstrate the depth of concern we have with the President. If enough do this, he will get the message.

Election Scouting Report Pt 2 (2002 results compared) Unfortunately, we lost another close race in 2002 in Michigan. Turnout is much lower in off year races, so it is sometimes hard to compare, but this can show where many ticket splitters are at. Dick Posthumus lost to Jenny Granholm by 127,692 votes (Bush lost by 217279). Granholm had 51.4%(same as Gore), Posthumus had 47.4%(Bush 46). The rest had about 1-2%. The UP: Posthumus 47685 – 46.66% Granholm 52857 – 51.72% Greens – 1100, Taxpayers(Michigan's name for Constitution Party) - 565 Granholm won by 5172 votes. Posthumus unperformed Bush (who won...

Today Micheal Moore went to speak in Grand Rapids, Michigan. The event was held at the Fountain Street Church.

MI: Widner drops 7th District congressional race Al Widner, who many Democrats hoped had a good shot at Nick Smith's 7th District congressional seat in south central Michigan, has withdrawn as a candidate, citing difficulties in fundraising. The former school superintendent had been regarded as certain to be the Democratic nominee. According to his press release: "Widner said that the demands of running a full-fledged campaign were overwhelming, and he quickly discovered he had to dedicate most waking hours to fundraising." Widner had told supporters that the 7th District had the highest Democratic vote of any Republican-held congressional seat. (Not...

<p>After months of indecision, former state Sen. John Schwarz said Wednesday that he is leaning toward running for Congress next year.</p> <p>Schwarz, R-Battle Creek, said he's not certain he'll run, but he believes he would be an appealing candidate to many voters in the 7th Congressional District and is qualified for the job, which six-term Rep.

Nearly half undecided in 7th District House race Thursday, November 20, 2003 Staff and wire reports Former state Sen. John J.H. Schwarz of Battle Creek would be an instant front-runner in the race to be Jackson's next representative in Congress, according to a poll released Wednesday. State Rep. Clark Bisbee of Jackson leads five Republican candidates with 17 percent support, but the race would change significantly if Schwarz becomes a candidate, the poll found. Schwarz, who ran for the seat and lost to incumbent U.S. Rep. Nick Smith in 1992, has not said whether he will run in 2004. Smith...

ELECTION 2000 (and what needs to be made up for 04) Right now, I’m assuming the dem nominee is Kerry, Graham, Dean, Edwards, or Gephardt. I expect Lieberman to lose badly in the primary since he’s too ‘conservative’. Sharpton, Mosely-Braun, and Dennis the Menace are jokes. One never won a race. One even lost in Illinois. One wrecked Cleveland. Wesley Clark is an interesting candidate, and could make things interesting. I don’t care what any poll says right now, things will tighten up by 04. It ALWAYS does. We also got to play ball like we are trailing. States Bush...

Dingell plans another run in 2004 The Associated Press 6/12/2003, 4:04 p.m. ET WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. Rep. John Dingell, the longest-serving member of the House, said Thursday he intends to run for re-election in 2004. Dingell, a Democrat from Dearborn, Mich., made his intentions clear in a letter to the Capitol Hill newspaper Roll Call, which had listed him as a member who was "expected to be considering retirement" before the 2004 election. "My name on a retirement list? A Republican fantasy," Dingell wrote. "While the thought of a Congress without me might make a few corporate malefactors sleep...

Mortimer to be GOP state House candidate By David Frownfelder -- Daily Telegram Staff Writer CAMBRIDGE TWP. -- Residents in the 65th State House District have one more month before their state representative is determined.

Andrews: DeWeese sets sights on congressional seat Paul DeWeese isn't ready to let last year's state Senate defeat end his career in politics. The former Republican state representative from Williamston lost a long, tough and expensive race to Democrat Virg Bernero.

DeWeese is already on the campaign trail. His loss to Bernero wasn't for a lack of money or effort. He spent nearly $350,000 and was...

President Bush's legal and political advisers are split over whether to take a stand on the racially charged subject of affirmative action as the Supreme Court prepares to take up a landmark case on racial preferences. The case -- actually two suits filed by white applicants against the University of Michigan -- is the highest-profile affirmative action case in a quarter-century and will determine whether racial diversity is a "compelling government interest" that can guide publicly funded schools' admissions.

STOP VOTE FRAUD IN MICHIGAN!!! In the 2000 election, a staggering number of ballots were cast by Michigan "voters" whose names did not appear on election rolls at the precinct polling places.
